Well it looks like someone has finally looked at the limits of
quantum computing and found that the picture is not so pretty
as many would like to think.

I always thought the "unlimited" potential of quantum computing
was suspect -- I'm glad to see scientists are developing some
reasons to back up my suspicions.

We are back again to "There is no such thing as a free lunch".
