I'm no neurological expert, but I doubt neurons have that much storage capacity unless you consider DNA to be part of that (which isn't fair - DNA is not actively read from or written to as part of a neuron's "I-O").
Oh, WTF, I'll jump in here. :-) GB == giga byte byte == 8 bits a bit is a binary element neurons are not binary Given Moore's Law and the other rules of thumb regarding the progress of computer hardware it will be another 25 to 30 years before we match human capacity. Anyone who says they can achieve such in significantly less time is seeking funding. :-) -- Chief Gadgeteer Elegant Innovations _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
