another nice image is this:

Looks like they're using a memory controller from 1999 to control 1 tb of ram.. wonder how the access time will be.

I'm beating a dead horse.

In the screenshot shown here, the line that says "Capacity 2 200 038 744 064 2,00 TB" is clearly digitally edited. The "TB" at the end of the line (lower right) isn't aligned correctly to the "2,00", to the left. The real screen wouldn't be misaligned, even if it had to display "TB". Smart-guides in Photoshop could have helped them align it correctly. Clearly, a fake.

On the tech side, Atomchip says "4x Pentium M 1.7 Chz"[sic]. Since when did anyone have dual or quad Pentium M systems? Pentium M SMP? What? What motherboard/chipset?

The closest thing to Pentium M SMP I've heard of is the new Yonah chip, which is a stretch. Pentium M's are the reference for the new Yonah 65nm chip (ousting the P4). Yonah will be dual core and similar to Pentium Ms. But will likely not be called M.

But SMP in the sense of dual core not "4x Pentium M" chips as they claim. Dual Yonah / dual core = 4x? What? Bah, I'm done thinking about this.

Dead horse.

Hey, you guys should really be using all your brainpower to find ways to invest in my uncles company instead of making fun of it. Anyone who puts money into this company today will get 10^10 return within 8 quantum optical years! You may have good questions from the information at http://atomchip.com/_wsn/page2.html. Questions such as, how can you address 1TB through a CF to IDE adaptor? Or, "In one square millimeter there are 512 x 512 = 262,144 stacks, each 1m in diameter" wouldn't that be 25cm thick? Don't worry, the answer to all your quetions is QUANTUM! Quantum processes make everything possible! My uncle is a genius! Send money! I need your help transfering $10 million from a Nigerian bank account!

1. I don't see them in the page you have linked.

2. In the screenshot here the 6,80 GHz has a comma instead of a period, in both the places it is displayed in the 'system properties' window.

3. There are no commas in the disk size on said page, and someone photoshopped again for commas instead of periods.

I don't mind a crappy photoshopped hoax, but at least they could be mildly EFFECTIVE about it. I mean, the something awful forum goons do ten times as well every week.

Scroll down a bit on this page to the NVIORAM pictures. Not only does it give you TB's of storage, but it also lets you plug your headphones into your record player.

And also, proof the US Patent office will give a patent to anything from anybody

Just look at the angle the laptop is at and then look at the property window http://atomchip.com/_wsn/page4.html
IDK could be my eyes but it to me looks like its been overlayed onto the screen..

two more to point out (Although you can change'em with windows so this my just be out there) The mouse cursor looks like its off OsX and the help and close buttons at the top look iffy to me...

I will buy one when I can get my new Radion xt99999 with 10 TB of video memory and a 10 TB GPU.....

They even took a picture from next January's CES. You'd think they'd advertise the time machine feature... http://atomchip.com/_wsn/page5.html

On one of the company pics, I saw one person siting on a garden plastic chair. Also, the facilities don't impress me much, 4 scientist in a small bathroom looking at some stuff. http://atomchip.com/db4/00366/atomchip.com/_uimage s/8GBAdapters.JPG These pics look funny to me, I could do the same hoax at home with some sort of glue and electronics component I have in here. The most funny part of it is the 2T memory allocation of Windows XP, and why XP OS by the way? Common Slashdot!!! you could do better!

They say they are price competitive with non-quantum technology.

Then they have the following prices:

1. The NvIOpRAM [ATA IDE] products have the selling price of $2.50 per 1GB.
2. NvIOpSRAM [144-pin SODIMM] products have the selling price of $4.50 per 1GB.
3. NvIOpSRAM [200-pin SODIMM] products have the selling price of $6.00 per 1GB.

Let's see, then that 2TB drive will cost $5000, and that included 1TB of RAM will cost $6000, for a minimum notebook cost of $11,000. And that's assuming the rest of the notebook (including their miracle processor) is free. While 1TB of RAM for $6000 is a good price, 2TB of hard drive for $5000 is a bit on the steep side.

Oh, and some loony hardware enthusiasts have already shown that even some current processors can run at 7GHz.

"Communication: 10/100 Base-T LAN on board, MDC Fax/Modem V.90/V.92 on Board"

Screw the 1TB of RAM.. It's got a V.90/V.92 modem that FAXES TOO! ON BOARD! Wow, what will they think of next?

Not to mention the air shower, gatta get me one of those.

Is it me, or does the AtomChip Logo look a lot like the LSI Logic Logo?

Hmphh. Check out the tagline on one of their home pages:

Atom Chip Corporation: Welcome to the World of Nanomicrons and Beyond!

Nanomicrons? Since the adoption of "femto" in 1964, (and considering the fact that there were much fewer uses for it before then) this word was supposed to have died. Really... why don't they just use "Billiardth-inches" while they're at it. [--to say nothing about whatever groundbreaking processing techniques allowed them to fabricate a processor at 1/100,000 the wavelength of x-rays]

Well, if nothing else gives it away, how about the image of the stereo connector with a bunch of labels on it describing the optical components and the massive memory it contains:

http://atomchip.com/_wsn/page3.html
particularly:
http://atomchip.com/db4/00366/atomchip.com/_uimage s/256Mx6M.jpg

Now, supposing you're a super genius engineer, who has come up with all this clever technology advancement which no one else has been able to think of. Do you:
a) design a nice new physical interface for it?
b) make it 100% physically compatible with devices it is not meant to be plugged into so that it can be easily accidentally damaged?

This site is a pretty thoroughly obvious fake. In fact, you pretty much have to assume that the fakers are intentionally leaving it sufficiently fake to avoid tricking anyone even slightly technologically inclined, and that it is in fact only targetted at trolling news media morons and slashdot editors.

This is most likely a fraud but it does contains some interesting tid-bits of info that make it appear that it could be true.

First off they won an award for there laptop by CES.
http://cesweb.org/attendees/awards/innovations/rd_ 2005honorees.asp?category=48

Second, Windows 2003 Datacenter (64-bit) edition does support 1TB, maybe they hacked Windows XP with those files to get 1TB (If they are so super smart you would think they could do this).

Ref: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/64bit/x 64/datacenter.mspx

Third, They are going to CES to show off there product: http://atomchip.com/_wsn/page5.html

So these pieces of info make it seem in the realm of possibilty even though that chance seems so small

http://atomchip.com/_wsn/page5.html

Another proof - look at this image. See where it says "1,99 TB"? Look carefully at the position of those 9's as compared to the 1.

This image alone... http://atomchip.com/db4/00366/atomchip.com/_uimage s/256Mx6M.jpg (from http://atomchip.com/_wsn/page3.html )

It's the "NvIOpRAM 24GB [3-pin]", also known as the 1/4" to 1/8" gold-plated headphone adapter available at RadioShacks everywhere.

The Register has a link to the company's press release with a few pictures. The so-called "Quantum II" processor shown in the "processor compartment" bears a striking resemblance to a mobile Pentium III chip with a heat pipe and fan assembly arranged almost identically to those in Dell laptops. The various

Everything on the page is quantum this and quantum that. Hell, my right pinky is quantum if you want to get technical.

Well, their RAM (if it actually exists oustide of someones head) is actually some form of holographic storage according to this other page of theirs.

Their "dylithium crystal" based transceiver, at least the one on the left, looks really familiar...

ignore the crappiness of the website... i thought this was pretty spiffy. and apparently they made a laptop that uses several of their 256GiB solid state disks, both for ram and storage click and they were given awards at CES according to this page
