Hello all:

Fiondella reply-37482 and Merced:

I thought Paul Fiondella's post was very useful. I've just been lurking about over the last 2 years and find most posts merely chatty, plus the usual cheerleading and doom forecasts. Can we try some of Paul's suggestions?

A question about Merced and its hoped-for speed and power. If Merced is successful in meeting its technical goals, does anyone have any idea what the effects on computing would be? The jump in power to 10,000 megahertz and 1 billion transistors (assuming this can be reached) is so large I really can't imagine its consequences. Does anyone have a clear picture of what this might mean? Seems like we would be in a different world of computing, not just a faster machine. No?

Any help appreciated. Good luck to all.
