Holy crap, a 6.8GHz laptop with 2TB RAMdrive?!

BopNiblets

Is this for real? :eek:

Gimme!

Pretor

Wow!
Talk about next generation hardware
.

Well its not one for gaming i think:Video & Graphics: "Two Integrated graphic controllers [Intel®855GME internal graphics, support Intel® DVMT (Dynamic Video Memory Technology) and AtomChip® DVM (Dynamic Video Memory)]"

It seems too good to be true, and their technology seems like it came right out of a DS9 episode...

WHAT IS QUANTUM-OPTICAL TECHNOLOGY?

This Quantum-Optical technology, which is the advancement of the Quantum technology (U.S. Patent No 5,841,689, and one new patent pending.) is based on the discovered magnetic quantum-optical phenomenon in porous silicon, entitled after the name of its discoverer, the Gendlin Effect. The Quantum-Optical technology has a minimum sustained write speed of 6 gigabytes (GB) per second and a read speed of 8 GB per second.

On the other hand, GIMME!

Looks like BS to me, it'd be all over every IT news site in seconds if it was even remotely close to being made. Also I'd love to know what that (relatively) big f**k off lens is doing sitting in the middle of their supposed CPU.

zAbbo

it was all over some IT websites - http://www.theregister.com/2005/09/07/atom_chip_miracle_machine/

and if you still think its real, check out this - http://atomchip.com/_wsn/page3.html

To capture the look on ur face when u find out its not a super computer u payed $15000 for, then transmit it to "Worlds Funniests Reactions" website

So tell me how windows can address 2TB of RAM?

BopNiblets

Found it on The Register
Edit: and was beaten to the link

From that article:

We must admit, we're a trifle sceptical, but Gendlin has his patent - and more pending, apparently - and so we look forward to seeing Atom Chip's kit in the flesh at CES. The company is scheduled to demonstrate its wares on Booth 36604.

Fair play to him.

If it's fake, at least we still have Go-L laptops (amongst other things) to drool and dream about.

Meh, it's fake.

But at least they're having good times, with their plastic chairs.


Also, shut up Ed.

Don't believe a word of it...There will be too much money to be made from 4 & 5 ghz processors .There is no way we would get that sort of a jump.....

Looks like a hoax.

Not to mention, they are not wearing gloves in a cleanroom.

That guy with just the smock is wearing Jeans. Must not need to be as clean a process as current chips.

He must be great, reprogramming windows and all

Wonder what bill thinks of that?



I'm on to you Campo!

TimTim

Yes, an air conditioning unit just makes a perfect air filtration system.

And who the hell uses a "clean" room for a training room?

Wertz

That RAM technology isn't new but the lasers and scanners required to process the i/o are neither advanced enough nor msall enough to fit in a laptop....this is cold fusion all over again.

FFS I could make a webpage that looked more professional....also, where's the contact info, phone numbers, eMail addys, copyrights. You can patent a dead cat in the US patent office if you wish....having a patent means SFA.
If any of this were remotely true the big corps would have been all over the guy ages ago...the end for the lucrative harddrive and volatile RAM industries? Theguy would have been into the back of a balck van and getting flashed by Will Smith...

Lord Oz

They might have had me believing if it was in a desktop, but in a laptop?!?

dont diss it until you have the balls to go out and buy one to prove your case

I have some lovely beachfront property in Cavan for sale if you're interested...:D

Bs!

Mutant_Fruit

I've bought two. Heres some benchmarks attached... Its bargain at that price! Its not going to go out of date for at least 15 years!

EDIT: And no, as you can plainly see i did NOT photoshop my results. I'd never stoop that low! :rolleyes:

Sparky

lol

tbh ive never seen ram hit 256GB nevermind 2 TB

is there even HDD on the general market that are 2 TB's?

K.O.Kiki

I'm not sure which is funnier: the guys that came up with the hoax, or the eejits that believed it for even a second!!

Thats a damn good skin you've got for windows there

Yook

Complete 100% Grade-A Premium Bull ****!

It would be a pretty stupid business plan to start selling at 6.8Ghz!

Nietzschean

i'm surprised ye didn't just thro it out based on the specs, they are far too lobsided to even be half real, wtf would a high spec laptop with those write speeds have 100mbit ethernet port for?

CuLT

The guy is a genius, perfect way to get worldwide notoriety: have brass balls.

Sure he doen't have some sort of magical laptop from the future, but if he ever releases something else people are going to be watching.

Gurgle

Loved the chip with a lens on it to make it optical.

Well theres so much wrong with it, I just picked 1 thing.

The 486 was built by Intel and AMD. They both went on to create CPU's, leapfrogging over each other...

But what if someone created a different approach?

Aren't they doing that already?

Actual quantum computing is still a long way off as far as I can gather, but the principle behind it is incredibly interesting.

Actually....Actual quantum computing has been done. :eek:

It's just not practical for the mass market yet (or anywhere even remotely near practical).

That may have been what you meant....but others may not have read it that way.

Yes, grammatical slip on my part, practical quantum computing

looks like these guy knew some people at SCO or at least robbed their idea

most patents are meaningless. unless you can actually produce(or licence) the product you are patenting.

What a load of cock. If they could make a 6.8Ghz processor, wouldn't they have released lesser speeds and incrementally increased them to milk the market to compete with Intel/AMD?. A terabyte of RAM, LOL, pull the other one, it's my knob!

If they got a 6.8Ghz CPU, they'd sell it, cos they'd know Intel of AMD wouldn't be able to catch up for a while.

But it looks real. It looks like 16MB memory, with a nice sticker on the front of it:rolleyes:

Yeah I suppose. It's still a load of bollox though!

You're joking right ?

If the world & its mother has 3 to 4 GHz processors, then Intel & AMDdefinitely are at least onto first run of 6 to 7 GHz.
