There's money in quantum computing, and everyone wants a part. I'll stick my neck out and state that there willl never be a general-purpose quantum computer. I'll concede that it *is* possible to use quantum effects to model or simulate certain processes: An analog computer, in essence. There. Prove me wrong. Jeroen Belleman
