Drexler's estimate for computers are coservative (purely mechanical rod logic). SWNT-based reversible logic (in spintronics? even utilizing nontrivial amounts of entangled electron spins in solid state qubits for specific codes?) could do a lot better. So today's secrets perhaps won't be in a few decades. What else is new? Rather, who's passphrase has 128 bits of pure entropy? Certainly not mine. So the weakest link is elsewhere. > diameter. So we'll probably get some advance notice - "Hey, what's that big-ass > thing orbiting around the Moon?" By that time the question is rather "do you think that's air you're breathing?"
