6.8GHz 1TB RAM and 2TB HDD Laptop?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the get-me-on-the-review-list-for-those dept.

Stuk writes "Research & development company AtomChip have announced a new 6.8GHz 1TB RAM and 2TB HDD laptop, which is "coming soon". Apparently it does not use a hard disc, instead it is based on "solid state AtomChip® optoelectronics". A new "non-volatile Quantum-Optical" type of RAM is used. Other features include voice commands, "Num Lock mode, Caps Lock mode, Scroll Lock mode". They're spoiling us." If Nintendogs has taught me anything, it's that voice recognition is awesome and should be used for everything. *cough*. And also to be skeptical of this many buzzwords.

    Tagline from the website... "Welcome to the world of nanomicrons and beyond!" All credibility went out the window right there. Seriously, how much pot do you have to smoke to come up with stuff like this. My grandma can photoshop better than the morons at "Atom Chip Corporation." If anyone gives these people money, they deserve what they're getting - absolutely nothing.

    Quoth the poster:
    they claim the price will be $4.50 per GB of ram

    So... the box as specced will cost nine grand just for the memory?
    This must be the system Thomas Watson was speasking of when he was quoted as "seeing a worldwide market for about five" of them (I'm paraphrasing, of course)

    Hmmmm, 4 x 1.7GHz = 6.8GHz. Interesting.
