Which is why you get a real ATX motherboard with 4 (or 6 for upper class Intel) slots rather than a little microATX board with no expansion capability.
Every microATX motherboard I've seen in the last couple of years has four RAM slots. Both AMD and Intel.
Yes, somebody is probably confused, but I think we will eventually see hard drive enclosures with a Thunderbolt port on the outside and a PCI-e to SATA 3.0 bridge chip inside.
The article linked to in the article

explains the actual holographic video generation part in more detail.
They are using arrays of lasers to make fringe/interference patterns. This IS "real holography", just very low resolution and framerate.

Hopefully this will mean that it will one day be possible to swap a laptop LCD with another one from a completely different manufacturer.
Right now every laptop manufacturer seems to use different electrical configurations, connectors and EDID.
Imagine a computer with hardware that literally reforms its self to accomplish new tasks on the fly.
Reconfigurable computing is already possible with FPGAs.
You can't go and buy commodity x86-type hardware such as CPUs or GPUs just yet, but "soon" (sooner than practical nuclear fusion, later than DNF) it will happen.

I know about PID and fuzzy, but what the hell is a Johnson controller?
I'm guessing you're North American? Pretty much the rest of the world sensibly includes tax in the displayed price.
