From the article:
"...using quantum bits or qubits to store information in 0s, 1s, and Mb>multiple values in between ..."
Wut? I thought qubit values were 0, 1, or "indeterminate" -- a superposition of both 0 and 1.

This article is saying a qubit might have a "value" of, say, 1/4, 1/2. 7/8. That's not right. Is it?

Oops.

"Mb>" should have been <b> that is, bold. So much for emphasis.

In the Quantum Universe, anything is possible.

That’s why Einstein called it ‘spooky’.

That’s also why a Quantum Computer will be so powerful.
It will be able to ‘quantify’ not just two states of solid probability, but every possible probability and every probable possibility.......... ............

I saw that too, and questioned it.

Then I realized that I am not a quantum expert, so I figured I didn't know what I was talking about :)

Glad someone else caught that.
