A pair of physicists have shown that if processors continue to accelerate in accordance to Moore’s Law, we’ll hit the wall of faster processing in roughly 75 years.
In a recently published paper in the journal Physical Review Letters, Levitin and Toffoli present an equation for the minimum sliver of time it takes for a single computation to occur and establishes the speed limit for all possible computers.Using their equation, Levitin and Toffoli calculated that, for every unit of energy, a perfect quantum computer spits out ten quadrillion more operations each second than today’s fastest processors, according to Inside Science.
Quantum computers have been around since 2003.There are objects that travel beyond the speed of light.
Processor fabrication using new technologies such as imprint lithography, graphene, and quantum computing will continue to yield faster and smaller chips. Nonetheless, those advanced techniques only stave off the absolute ceiling for speed, no matter how small the components get, according to physicists Lev Levitin and Tommaso Toffoli at Boston University in Massachusetts.

It's actually a myth- a mistranslation: he actually promised a bunch of grapes.

Nothing travels faster than the speed of light.Unless you have a radical new theory of physics you'd like to reveal to us.
Nothing travels faster than the speed of light.
QuoteNothing travels faster than the speed of light.You are wrong Frank, Superman is faster http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_fast_is_Superman
As is The USS Enterprise.
QuoteAs is The USS Enterprise.jepp, forgot that one. was it WARP speed..........that is realy fast..............
