HP kills The Machine

Remember the memristror? The technology which could quantum leap forward the technology? And change computers from the Neumann achitechture to some unified technology?
Well, it is dead:

I guess HP realized it needs money to make this breakthrough, so plan B: Printer toners and government contracts.

How are they going now to redeem their karma points from the racketing on toner refills?

Well they didn't "kill" it... It never lived.

There was zero chance HP could have realistically pulled this off within a decade or so. All that's happened is that they admitted the obvious.

It was just marketing crap, they are becoming irrelevant in the technical field :)
