In a tiny office in West Palm Beach, Fla., a handful of clunky computers are crunching through a software problem that many consider unsolvable.

If true, it would signify a huge leap forward in computer science, comparable to the invention of a water-powered engine for automakers or cold fusion for power companies.

Hmmm... isn't this the same cold-fusion-kind-of thing we
discussed here some time ago? I tried to check the earlier article link provided by Jack but the story was not up anymore. After reading the story I must say I am not too convinced...
