So what are the limits of effective computation in nature? Can we
reach computing speed billions and trillions of times faster than
current computers?

The speed of light and propagation delay.
 
How much faster will quantum computers be than classical
Building a quantum computer is like building a hyper-space bypass
but the plans are hard to find!

The plans have been available for public viewing for months. just down at
the nearest star, Alpha Centuri, a mere 4 light years away.
 
His quite specific bitch was that Scientific American is not free,
NOT that it wasn't available.

He is obviously a neophyte, and may be in some backwoods location
in Pakistan (or wherever), for all you know. His probable first
reaction to the McGaw response was to access the Scientific
American website, and find that article unavailable. He also has
possible problems with the English language. And obviously with
Usenet conventions.

If you want to post a followup via groups.google.com, ensure you
quote enough for the article to make sense. Google is only an
interface to Usenet; it's not Usenet itself. Don't assume your
readers can, or ever will, see any previous articles.

Apathetic bloody planet, I've no sympathy at all...

Haven't read many of his postings, have you?

Actually none. Since the reason internet, and CDs, and DVDs, and
lasers, and fiber optics, and satelittes, and robots, and
holograms,
were even developed for computers is because it's plainly obvious
that the only thing the idiot wanks in QM even know about computer
speed is bus speed.

Maybe he gets Scientific American at the grocery store, like we
do :-) Right next to the magazines that tell him the latest about
Paris Hilton or Britney Spears.

Twenty or thirty years ago, maybe. SA has gone far downhill. It
used to explain things very nicely for people in other fields. I
used to subscribe, now I maybe buy it once every two years or so.

I have subscribed for about 14 years, but after they started
to go "green", publishing "maybeso" and "Itsgreensotrue" and
"ourmodelshowsblablabla", I quit my subscription.
