i doubt it considering everything would have to change. you couldnt make components with quantum computing and stick it on a normal computer. It will be at least 10 years before quantum computing starts to become a thing

If this does happen, that would be sick.

You never know. Look how far technology has advance in the last few years alone.

Actually we do know, because quantum computing is completely different and has three states in which qubits can be, they can be on, off or or both simultaneously. Quantum computing is also different because it doesn't use transistors like normal digital computers. So basically no, its not coming any time soon, and the only thing quantum computers are able to do now is solve a series of equations and run algorithms. Not anywhere close to a normal computer as we know it.

Sorry. Didn't realize you could see the future :O

You do realize they also said no one would ever use a personal computer xD

The way quantum computers work now may be different 10 years from now.

Hell yeah lets make a CPU that does everything faster but makes the chances of a packet being sent decrease by a hell of alot. Sure thing m8, like our GMOD loading times arent already slow enopgh.

Why does your text look like that?

If you had an understanding of how these computers work then maybe you'd understand :p. There are also limits in the manufacturing process and limits of the silicon chips we use today. Not saying they couldn't have some breakthrough somewhere down the road, but honestly nowhere close at the moment and will definitely take years before we see them being adopted even on the commercial level.

Chances of a packet being sent decrease? Make gmod loading times slow? First of all, I'm in school now to be come a CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate) and a faster processor has nothing to do with the speed of packets being sent. Also speed of packets being sent doesn't really affect gmod loading times that much, mainly the loading and unloading of different addons and verifying they're all correct is what makes the difference.
