I'm surprised the IBM report didn't put any emphasis on reduced security breach costs. Maybe it's a difficult intangible to calculate. Microsoft made a point of including it in their study. I would have thought Linux would have come out on top in that department.
i agree neurons are not simple from a computational standpoint. Certainly neurons' forte is to get a fuzzy (analog) result out of a super large amount of input.
i guess what i was trying to do was to compare the high connectivity simple logic (analog, neurons) to high connectivity complex logic (CPU instruction set).
Although probably not their intention, Intel is paving the way for high-density grids of "neuronal" multi-processors (that's a word, right?).
Might be OT: So neurons are super low power, extremely highly connected, relatively simple logic gates.
What happens when you have low power, highly connected and relatively complex logic processors connected in a grid? Does the processor complexity reduce the effectiveness of the interconnectivity?
I don't think they care about the IM market share per se.
I think it's just Google trying to add yet another centralized service (although I do believe chat/VoIP to be an extremely important collaborative move for Google). The more services you can offer or bundle, the more people who want one-stop shopping will congregate to Google.
Heck, if Google adds a few more major componenets, they're ready to release their own thin-client OS...
I bet they integrate VoIP with Google Maps or Google World...although I guess that wouldn't do too much for privacy..:-P

Wonder what a virus sounds like through those earphones? Ashley Simpson?

yes, it was...when the group meets Steven...i'm glad you recognized it...
