Hello,
   many of you may have already seen this. What follows is a quote from
Aviation Week (AvLeak), 3/6/89 issue. Disclaimer: I have no affiliation
with them, my purpose in posting this is to inform only.

   DARPA research efforts: "... * A miniature supercomputer capable of
operating at a speed of 1 billion operations/sec. and occupying a volume
of only 10 cu. in., is projected to be demonstrated in 1990." p.27
[other projects mentioned]

   Anyone have more info and/or comments?
