I read an article some time ago about someone who was playing with a completely light based processor. The idea was that photons could change the state of a crystal structure and cause it to reflect light or no.
Theoretically, you could turn large amounts of the copper in current systems into fibre.
I've long since forgotten where I saw this. Anyone have a URL?
Anyone who has ever taken a stats course knows that statistical figures are 100% unreliable.
Microsoft has obviously spent alot of time working this so that they will win! I was singly impressed by the way they admitted to providing an unfair testing environment...and then turned around to start giving points to why NT is still better.
Linux works, and it's cheap. Most people don't care about quad CPU fridges...they arn't even an elegant solution to high load websites due to I/O bottlenecks. Far better to run a small cluster of servers mirroring each other.

The cursor also matches the cursor on my Machintosh exactly -- except for the inverted colours.
