If I start a 200 qubit quantum computer at time = 0, and 100

for 200 things to go through in 100 microseconds even if they
changed their state every Plank time (5.39121 x 10^-44 seconds),
then physically speaking it **must** have been simultaneous. I
don't see any other way to explain this result. How can 200
things explore 10^60 states in 10^-4 seconds, when a Plank time is
5.39 x 10^-44 seconds?
It's no more impressive numerically than an electron wave function
picking out one of 10^30 silver halide molecules on a photographic plate
to interact with (which is also non-local, aka simultaneous).
Also note that you can only read off 200bits of information (c.f.
Holevo's theorem).

*Impressive calculation to be sure, but is this a theoretical value
based on the assumption I deny; or is it achieved by a working quantum
computer? AG *
