If you look at this link http://www.p2pnet.net/story/7929 you'll see that soon you could have a $1,000 computer that would hold your whole digital life on it. This is the companies website. http://colossalstorage.net/ Displays that look good now are going to be out modded.

Why do you all say that it will be a while before all this comes out. I'd say that in about 2-3 years 10 terabyte hard-drives will come out and replace the ones we have now days.

I'd say that in about 2-3 years 10 terabyte hard-drives will come out and replace the ones we have now days.no. in 2-3 years. we'll be using 2TB hard drives. thats my technological prediction. until they can get parallel sectors on hard disks perfected. i dont see then rising in the future.

The tecknologies on those sites are 10 years ago.However,I can predict that in 7 years we will have 20 core CPUs.

Wow, a petabyte. That could hold about 1% of the internet.
