embedded someplace whining about how long it takes to solve some mystery
we can't even think about at the moment. "I just got my new Centillion
bit watch today. That old Vigintillion one was getting so damn slow."

The goal for governments to have this computer is to destroy
encryption. That's why China just announced they are spending
$10B to build one. The goal of IBM is to sell the patent
