Woah... I wonder just how much of an impact this will really have on the tech world in the long run? :eyepop:

yeah I'm afraid patents might be a problem... since IBM probably has it patented.
Patents protect profits but slow down the overall technological progress of society.
Maybe lots of companies will pay royalties to use the chips.... at least I'd think they'd want to... this could be a very important technology.
