... HP hopes will be a game changing new data center computer. It's internally calling that computer "The Machine."

HP is creating a lot of new technology to build The Machine, especially a new form of memory known as "memristors" which won't lose data if the power turns off (also known as "non-volatile memory").

The Machine's claim to fame is that it can process loads of information instantly while using hardly any power. HP wants this computer to replace the servers being used in today's data centers. But it also hopes the tech will become the basis for the next generation of PCs.

And The Machine will not use Windows.



great! Just when I get comfortable with and over the way things used to be I have to reconfigure my brain to how things are gonna eventually be.

I am glad that Microsoft is getting competition.

Ain't technology great?

Yeah, competition is great because it creates more opportunities and choices. But jeeeeez, for those of us slow on the uptake it can be downright aggravating!
