Looks like good news for computers , NSA and Hackers who would like to Brute force passwords.
For us, I am not sure , OS and software vendors will continue to write fat-sluggish code and ensure that the end users will not experience any performance gains.
SNIPPETS from the Article:-
This idea orbital computing and the big takeaway for engineers is that one can switch the state of an electron’s orbit 10,000 times faster than you can switch the state of a transistor used in computing today.
The primary advantage here is that while we’ve known for a while that a laser can speed up a state change (and thus, speed up computing) those lasers require a lot of power. The terahertz breakthrough offers a boost in speed without requiring a huge power draw.
