gollark: There is Shor's algorithm, which lets you factor primes much faster or something.
gollark: Come to think of it, we could probably put a lot of computing hardware into the solar power stuff, which presumably has a lot of power and some cooling.
gollark: The main constraints for high-performance computer stuff *now* are heat and power, or I guess sometimes networking between nodes.
gollark: Also, for random real-world background, there are only two companies making (high-performance, actually widely used) CPUs: Intel and AMD, and two making GPUs: AMD and Nvidia. Other stuff (flash storage, mainboards, RAM, whatever else) is made by many more manufacturers. Alienware and whatnot basically just buy parts from them, possibly design their own cases (and mainboards for laptops, to some extent), and add margin.
gollark: You could just have them require really powerful nonquantum computers.
