I wonder if these memristor computers could be attached to our brain, increasing memory capacity, processing power, creating a HUD-like overlay without the need for external displays (just tap into the part of the brain that we use to visualize objects) - now that would be really impressive. Damn, I hope I get to use at least a memristor-based computer in my lifetime :-)...
Hmm, if it allowed me to store and easily access say, ~2 Terabytes of data (books, videos, etc.) and the risk was minimal, then frankly, yes...
Plus, I'm sure they won't be obsolete that fast - once it develops to a certain point, the need to upgrade won't be as urgent - kind of like the difference between a Pentium 4, a Core 2 Quad and a Sandy Bridge Core i7 - the performance difference is huge, but the C2Q's useable lifespan is about a decade, whereas the P4 was only useable for less than 5 years. Sandy Bridge will be fast for at least a decade, as well...
