As I understand it, they have developed a very rudimentary QC. However, it can only do the most simplistic of calculations... add,subtract,multiply,divide... I'm not even sure it can do all that...
The problem is keeping the system stable enough to actually complete calculations. The system I've heard of crashes very regularly just trying add a string of numbers.
But hey, 30 years ago computers took up whole rooms... so maybe in 30 or so years well have a full working model.

Yes, they have been around for a few years now, but rest assured we won't see them until the military have explored every aspect of their importance and potentials...and BOY, have they got some potentials!
