Seems to me that all these arguments are rooted in the way computer memory is fundamentally implemented: Could it not be possible to re-architecture it so that it's more agreeable to arrays and lists, since that's how most data is used? I often wonder about the separation of CPU and RAM, of ways it could be done better. How about making it like neurons, where each "memory cell" is also a teeny tiny computer itself? (How DO neurons do internal computation anyway?)
