Dear Mr. Sands: With the advent of IBM's ability to orderly process atoms, it is now possible (theoretically) to speculate on the true capacity of CD-ROM. The 660,000,000 bytes times 8 bits per byte is the current standard using the common frequency of colared laser. However, at the micron level, this bit process uses roughly 33,000 atoms per bit. Now if this is so, ie. that atoms can be logically ordered, is it not conceivable that 33,000 times 8 times 660,000,000 is the correct theoretical capacity of CD-ROM? Your comments sir, would be highly spiritually enlightening!
