Are we steeping towards a "Terabyte" Era?

[optimus prime]

If scientists can introduce,nano technology to computer science,will our RAMS,hardisks,processers,VGAs..etc will step into a "Terabyte" era...???still we are dealing with Gigabytes & megabytes....how superb & speedy those computers will be????

if scientists can master ''nano technology'' the amount of the value can be infinity..there wont be any limitations.Also, if scientist master ''nano technology'' we can make diamonds..since diamonds has a certain pattern in thier structure...so the diamond price will decrease dramaticlly....
however there is a long way to go to master this technology

Ya, There is a long way to go towards that technology but we are surely moving towards it.

It will be extremely fast initially but will soon slow down. Reason? Have you ever noticed that even though the size of RAM, CPU Speed of modern hardware has increased, the usage is also increasing...for e.g most software nowadays require more RAM as compared to what it might have needed a few years back...

Good Point!!

I hope me to but as safeguy told as the size of ram is increasing the consumption by the new softwares nd games also incresasing rapidly , earlier 64 m.b ram is enough but now days 4 g.b is less if we see the memory requriment by applications( in some cases)

[safeguy]

Well, let's just all wait and see then...Hopefully that as the hardware 'quality' goes up, the prices goes down $$$ matters a lot to me...I wouldn't buy a PC that has 1000GB of RAM but would cost me my arms and legs to get...
