    Nope. It will first come as an add in board or card then will become the heart of the pc but the pc will go on forever depending on your definitions of "personal" and "computer".

      Not unless Quantum laws are inacted. Just think about it if a Schrödinger's Cat virus infects a QC there will be a gigantic market for QC antivirus software. Where will it all end?

        Oh crap, that's scary! If it does I'll have to throw in the garbage everything I learned since my first 'Hello world!'.

            Why does "everyone" (=journalists) think that quantum computers will be much faster than traditional computers? Quantum computers are no magic machines that can brute-force anything in parallel. AFAIK, they don't make breaking AES easier. So far, there are only a few quantum algorithms that are significantly better than the best known traditional counterpart. Unfortunately, factoring large numbers is one of them, so basically all asymmetric cryptography is broken.

                        But you'll be looking at Sky.Net through Windows. Does this mean that the terminators will crash every 1/2 hour?

                          It's best that way. It's the only way to ensure garbage collection.

                                In the three movies, how many times have we seen the T-800 reboot? It's been obvious since 1991 and T-2 that Sky.Net was a superset of Windows. edit: reference to T-1 and 1984 removed to eliminate time paradox
