This is really exciting. I don't see anything with this techology that would limit it to just CPU chips. I'd imagine it would work just as well in a GPU chip. That would make incredibly realistic simulation of graphics and physics possible.
It would obiviously revolutionize gaming completely, but most imporantly it would revolutize science. Imagine having the power of the whole Folding@Home network in your laptop! Imagine how much power the future Folding@Home projects and other similar projects will have.
I'm a diehard optimist, but a sudden 100-1000x increase in ordinary CPU speeds could have the possibility to save thousands (if not millions) of lives and advice science a hell of a lot!
