Once again Larry manages to confound the expectations of others. <snip> > just think of the Turing capabilities! = ) QUE?

Just as illuminating a hologram with a reference beam recovers the stored information, illuminating it with a pattern of information will reproduce the corresponding reference beam and angle, which immediately identifies the page on which the information is stored. In other words, holographic memories can be searched extremely fast for data patterns. "This would allow database searches using physics rather than software," Coufal says.
