Sure, if you have a cool 10 million USD lying around.  Grin

I thought the cryogenics system that is needed to house it cost 10 million & the actual computer itself costs much more than that.

No the price tag is $10M including the cryogenic system.  Obviously consumables (like liquid helium) aren't included and I would imagine it probably has a hefty maintenance cost.

Ha ok, I missed it, sorry.

Preorder ? Maybe BFL build these ? Smiley


They're already offering them, with a lead time of 4-6 weeks.

LOL, I can't wait until they go bankrupt after the people running it give themselves a nice bonus.

We already had that discussion. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/breaking-quantum-computer-hits-bfl-basic-etc-all-dead-end-of-btc-131778

In short. Yes, they exist, yes, they are already in use, no, they will not kill Bitcoin, no, you can't use them for mining.

Quantum computer ... 128 Q-bits

http://www.dwavesys.com/en/products-services.html

So the end of this computing world has arrived finally ?


[Edit] Ok, I was not trying to troll. Last time I checked they were fighting to put together more than a couple of these qbits and it didn't work very well, and now, ... 128 intricated qbits ?  really ? wow ...
