Hoax. There isn't one iota of doubt that the entirety of the site, the "company," and the listed products are 100% fabrication.

I would say hoax, but they are a registered exhibitor at the next CES. Looks like the truth will come out in January.
Here's their entry.Edit: But looking at
this page, I'm not sure how they can be anything but a hoax.
Edit 2: On closer inspecton, the descriptions do look like they make sense. It looks like the parts were built from Radioshack supplies though. If this is real and makes it to market it will be a major advancement for computers. Not only will they be cheaper and more efficient, but the HDD bottleneck of the past will be gone.

2 terabyte HD they don't have them in desktops yet, who needs anything that big anyway.

Is that a 3.5mm audio plug I see?? The bare-faced liars..
It just cracks me up that they seem to have fooled so many tech sites..

Yeah right! As if I would have 2TB of internal RAM...OMG
and what youčre going to do with over 2048GB of HDD???
Sincerly, this would be useless...like it's in the million dollars

While my more sensible side says hoax, my less sensible side also says hoax. LOL. To be completely naive, maybe they're um...hmmm...going to unveil something, just not as incredible, and they wanted some attention? God, I dunno...I'm trying to give them SOME props. LOL. While it looks like a $2.00 website, the scratched up images took alot of work to put together - all those radioshack parts and headphone jack cables.
If it's for real, I now believe that pigs can fly.

Since when did we step into the Quantum CPU era? I can't imagine anyone is actualy believing any of this information. I can point out 10 faults in the screen shots and just the so called "Quantum CPU". I am shocked and it greats my hear that anyone would believe this for a second!
Hey guys look my quantum processor has an optical lense on the heat spreader!

Shame on all who even believed for one second this wasy true!

Look at where it says AtomChip... look at the background around the text, DIFFERENT COLOR FROM THE WINDOW BACKGROUND! HAHAHA! Hoax!

It's possible, with some liquid nitrogen and a very advanced system to keep the cpu cold as well....

Look what I built! It harnesses the displacement of electrons during a mock random jump which then returns processed data before the command has actually been given. The only delay comes from the cache procedure. Theoretically, this processor would run at infinity Hz if it weren't for the cache configuration.

By the way, it doesnt exactly have a hard drive. It uses a non-volatile hard disk RAM unit as both system memory and storage. With 64 million micro-pipelines, it can access any single bit of data in 1/2,400,000,000 seconds. Read and write speeds are virtually instantaneous (essentially 1TB per 2.4 billionths of a second or 2.4 billion TB/s).
