But will Meg take it in the right direction either? Her experience is consumer-facing... I hope there is an empowered VP or 2 who will make that initiative a success.
I think the greatest impact of the memristor is in the consumer space. When you have a 1000-fold (or million-fold) quantitative change you are bound to have a qualitative change as well...
What would a computer with petabytes of non-volatile RAM look like? How would you package software for it? Will it reboot from time to time? What does a reboot mean when your memory is non-volatile? I have my hunches, but the effort to find answers to my few questions is dwarfed by the effort to find out what the relevant questions will be in this brave new world and if we can answer them. Or even understand them.
