New Idea Could Lead to Quantum RAM

KentuckyFC writes to tell us that scientists in Italy and the US have designed a new method of retrieving information from quantum memory that could allow them to create "Quantum RAM". "Giovannetti's idea is to send the address down the branching tree of connections in such a way that it only affects one switch at a time. The first address qubit sets a switch at the first branching point to go one way or the other; the second qubit is sent that way and sets the switch at the next branching point, and so on. The total number of entangled quantum systems is smaller, and they are not so susceptible to interference, allowing information to be retrieved from memory intact."

Re:Talk about it if you must, but DO something

First, you hijacked the thread. Don't do that. Second, your post doesn't even make sense. Yes, reading the title as Quantum DRM is a bit funny. Ha ha. But then you try to draw some extremely tenuous and frankly non-existent connection between memory capacity and DRM as an excuse for posting in this thread? Please.
