I'd be cautious too in making projections, but in 5 to 10 years the average PC owner like myself may well indeed have, what today is considered exotic or expensive, even the improbable on their desktops. Does it sound really unreasonable that AMD and Intel will have "New" types of chips and ram that will blow the doors off existing PC's of today? Forgive the expression "Blow the Doors Off" , as I borrowed that from Dr. Hyatt:) I hate to really guess what speeds or even "New" technologies will be on our desks by 2010! Any bets that by that time 1Thz might be feasible?;)
