By next June, HP will be showing off what it hopes will become the future of the operating system. And it won't have anything to do with Microsoft or Windows.The operating system is called Linux++. Ultimately, HP hopes to replace Linux++ with something even more radical and homegrown, an operating system called Carbon, though it hasn't announced a timeline for that. This is all part of HP's plans to build "The Machine" a computer so radical and so powerful that it will reduce today's data center down to the size of a refrigerator. To do this, HP is inventing a whole bunch of new technologies, including a new super-fast way to transfer data that uses light (i.e. photonics) and, most importantly, a new kind of memory called "memristors." HP hopes to have prototypes of The Machine available in 2016, and the device should be on sale by 2018, if HP's plans stick.

 
Here is the timeline for when "The Machine" and all its parts will become commercial products.

    I like how they can time travel and know that the new architecture will turn out as optimistic as they say.

    What profit-oriented company doesn't do that?  They all do that to maintain the confidence of their investors and shareholders.
     
     
    I look past that and figure the prototype/production licence isn't competing with Windows desktop/laptop/mobile, so potentially irrelevant to many of us.  "Revolutionary" is in context of what HP normally caters, not a 'satisfy everyone all the time' circumstance.  My only questions are on compatibility and usability, what legacy software works with the new OS and its GUI?

    For Intel processors, 0.122 x TDP = Continuous Amps at 12v [source].
