"a little-known company named ZeoSync announced last week it had achieved perfect compression -- a breakthrough that would be a bombshell roughly as big as e=mc2"
"Perfect compression, or even compression of a few hundred times -- what ZeoSync claims -- would revolutionize the storage, broadband and digital entertainment industry. It would mean that modems would be as fast as DSL, and DSL speeds would be blinding. A 40-GB hard drive would hold a terabyte, and so on."
"If you say absolutely random, it's going to be very hard to agree what absolutely random is. We can compress sequences that Stanford University professor Don Knuth described as uncompressible (in his Art of Computer Programming). "
