Okay, has anyone googled for extreme overclocking recently? I recommend you do so and scroll down till you find the google video called extreme overclocking. Watch that and then think about what would happen if that were a 500 ghz proc instead of a 4 ghz one.

On the other hand, if you could get enough high speed cabling and an orbital neuclear generator, you could conceivably run such a processor under absolute zero temperatures in outer space in orbit of the earth while the data is sent and recieved via a network of high speed cabling or radio waves. Anyway, that's just my say, and I agree with most people that such a device won't exist any time soon. However, I could believe the eminent existance of a quantum processor. Imagine this. Today, a computer uses 0s and 1s at it's basic level to get everything done. Now, think about what would happen if it used not only no and yes, [0 and 1 respectively], but another 32 variables that signified other things. I'm not a physisist, but if such a system were implimented, computers would run at close to quantum speeds. Anyhow, enough of my rambling
