Brought back memories of many things I learned in school and uni! I can't write the Schroedinger wave equation, but for a brief time some years ago I could!
I too would have liked more info on the construction/operation of the computers - not just their underpinnings.
I'm so glad that Tom spoke at OSDC. His topic wasn't typical of the conference, but provided a new insight in to something relevant.
I would have liked to know more about the implications of quantum computing on the future of computing as we know it; for example, the ability to make current encryption methods ineffective. This may, of course, not have been his area of interest or expertise.

I got totally lost in the middle - but Tom made a great attempt to talk about a very difficult subject.
I'd like to have seen more on the quantum computers themselves.

All in all though, an enlightening talk. Thanks!
