What would be wrong with just a straight clock rate to clock rate comparison between the two?
I see you're suffering from the same delusion as the author. The answer is clock rate is not a measure of bit rate.. Clock rate is just the length of cycle, it does not dictate how many bits move during that cycle. This can be demonstrated by example.. A 1.5ghz XEON handles many more bits than a 1.5ghz ARM during one clock cycle, even though the clock rate is the same.
Could this not be done the same way CRTs scan a grid of pixels, just on a micro scale with higher resolution? I am not a particle physicist, but I imagine the carrier beam could be steered with some sort of electromagnetic choke (again, think CRT) to form either a repeating-Z or spiral scan mode. From there, it's just straight forward time-domain correlation of the output signal, assuming this matrix of GST laced waveguides would pass their darkened or non-darkened light blips to a collector where it would be focused and filtered into a waveform and decoded like some hyper-speed version of today's RF modulation schemes such as PSK, QAM, 8VSB, etc...
Any other concepts I can come up with involve moving parts, so they're automatically non-mention worthy.
It's my understanding that schools today have internet-connected computer labs and/or public computers in their libraries, so this question is moot.
Not really. That's like saying because they have cafeterias in schools, it is a moot point whether or not the child's parents can provide food at home.
You watched it go on for a few weeks without blocking the traffic? Amazing... This must be the Windows IT mantra... Notice something weird? Stare at it for a few weeks. Maybe it will go away.
Agreed, although they don't have to be lackluster.. I drive an 89 benz 300. I enjoy luxury and elegance along with the dependability and freedom from pesky electronics. I'm pretty sure the thing will survive an EMP.
Not by the time financial transaction software developers like Fidelity Information Services get a hold of it. How is running a daemon compiled together with it's monitor in a GUI-based.COM object even remotely "working pretty damn well"? Don't get me wrong, I've heard all the fairy tale applications for.NET, and sure it could have some uses.. But any.NET app I've ever seen has been a nightmare. Had to build server images with very specific versions of every single OS patch and interpretor, otherwise the thing went tits up... This is not what.NET was "supposed" to be about, but in the end it was utter crap.
Don't even get me started on MS Biztalk....::cringe::

For visible light I personally prefer to use a mirror.
How would you propose steering the laser with a mirror without moving parts?
How do you address billion+ addresses optically?

the resulting [memory] chips have the potential to run at 50 to 100 times the speed of today's computer processors.
Am I the only one who noticed that the author doesn't really understand the difference between storage throughput and processor speed?
I could use a good Dixie Flatline construct
I fear Apple is making a mistake that may come back to bite them.

No, he was setup to fail by his parents who didn't realize they had named him "Dick Willie".
In Austin there are plenty of ex-Dell support center staff who'd (presumably) need very little training.

Umm... Windows has a policy kit. Have you heard of it?

Not sure what Fidelity app you're talking about here.
AP7000 >> ALS-COM
Works pretty damn well for that.

I took the tinfoil off and got an account in oh..I don't remember. What's the reason for abandoning an account?
No, Telex
Still the wrong Telex. I think he meant Telex
