So i was thinking about this real long and hard and it comes to the looks of it that basically i think about twenty years from now, our so called "computers" well be about four inchs wide and four inchs tall and possibly have a mini monitor with huge ram and graphics and processor capability, am just curious as to what you guys think the future of technology holds, or might hold for us in the near future.

it will be realized that our brains are the ultimate in physical computers

It'll be like Ghost in the Shell, our bodies will be robotic except for our minds. I love that show and the movies were sweet too.

I think we will evolve to using telepathic messages

Everyone has the potential for telepathy--we just have to learn to use it. The mind is the most powerful "computer" there is..it can't be duplicated. We would need to learn to direct the thoughts correctly.

I moved to a 21" cause it's easier to get head shots with a laser mouse on a 21".

Back to the topic.

The future is in optical computing using qbits. Check Wikipedia for Quantum Computing. Intel has been working on fiber optic chips for over 4 years.

Remember when the computing power of our PC took a whole room of vaccuum tubes and transistors? Probably not but 2 college students built a quantum computer the size of 2 tables.

Computer's in the near future maybe Chemical & Biological based processing technology able to interface with humans via RFID implants.

The brain uses small electrical impulses to move thoughts about. All we need to do is monitor those impulses and translate them - similar to the way the brain does - into images or commands for a computer.
