From the article:
Using an optical-based quantum computer, a research team led by physicist Paul Kwiat has presented the first demonstration of "counterfactual computation," inferring information about an answer, even though the computer did not run. The researchers report their work in the Feb. 23 issue of Nature.


Neat.

that is neat.

That's it?
Does anyone know what this thing does? It's a friggin miracle!
You can now go back to your daily lives; apparently quantum physics doesn't interest any of you

I don't think it's a lack of interest but more a lack of understanding, how can anyone be interested if noone really knows what it is? ^^

I'm not overly interested as it's going to be a long time before it effects home PC's that we use every day, I mean it's taken this long for 3D developers to finally let commercial people own physics accelerators.
