    3nm sounds cool, but will it really be better than a Q6600?

    Some say, yes.

    Bought a Viewsonic CRT about 8-9 years ago and just got my first LCD. 10 years from now sounds perfect!

    Holographic storage is available now. Limited to only 300GB per disc it is scheduled to go to 1.6TB per disk . Inphase released the Tapestry 300r Apr 2007 and promised the Tapestry 800r (800GB) 18-24 months later. A bit pricey when first put on market the drive was priced at US$18000 and the 300GB disks were US$120-US$180 each. These are WORM drives or in a more familiar acronym form HVD-R

    There is also an HVD consortium that was supposed to be demoing a 3.9TB drive a few years ago, but they do not yet have a commercial offering.

    This tech looks like it will give the HVD a run for the money :)
