rk>POET memory++ on the other hand is no harddisk storage, but in the SRAM and DRAM configuration will be used as fast internal memory inside a computer. However, with Flash, SSD storage, and POET memory++ in the NVRAM configuration as well as with fast memory caches in harddisk devices the boundaries become more and more blurred.

Saying tomorrow's POET is no harddisk storage is like saying today's SSD is no stone tablet.

Once economies of scale are reached, there will be no need for the legacy terms Harddisk/ SSD/ Flash.

In the end, it's all one harmonized storage resource pool.

And the mainframe dinosaur people that everybody in the PeeCee world always look down their nose at?

Will have been proved right after all: processor cache, ram chips, flash, disk, tape ... it's all ever been called "storage" to them.
