Speaking of the adoration of things They Said Would Come: holographic memory cards are here! Almost. At $1 for a credit - card sized 30GB storage card (it's even transparent, like a lucite Star Trek prop!), and $1,800 for the reader device, these things are nearly within reach of fiscally irresponsible people such as myself who would want to figure out some way of storing and streaming entertainment content off of them. For comparison, my Orb drive takes 2.2GB cartridges that can be had for $16 off eBay, but listed for $60 - $100 when cutting - edge.
Can unplugging the mind of a mad computer be far behind? I say no. Bring on the demented AI!
