      Think this question was meant to be aimed at Nike. I personally am looking forward to the development of the tricorder from Star Trek, which may not be a supercomputer to some but it would be for me. People are working on it!

      I’m working on building “quantum computers” which are a particular type of very powerful computer.

      One quantum computer is already available commercially: It’s called D-wave one: http://www.dwavesys.com/en/products-services.html

      But it’s £10,000 !!
