    <pre> Hi Techno Listees, Has anyone sussed out what drain pipe technology might be? I understand it might be breaking data down into tiny particles with code addresses so they can scatter and mingle down the "drain pipe" and all leave and reassemble at the right address; ensuring faster more ven traffic flow of info bits. i.e The information doesn't have to travel in unweildy blocks and there is less space waste between all the bits of info.

    Has anyone else heard any new info or sources on large file DVD or megafile data trafficking? Here in Australia they have qantam atoms on qnatam computers counting to four so far, so it seems to be the way of the future; and I was wondering if we have qantam computers , why not qantam digital data? Excuse me if I sound silly, I realise I'm just wading round the edges of science here!
