  1. This a really big deal! This technology makes cryptography, as we know it, OBSOLETE! Password security? Absolutely pointless! Secure network transactions? Impossible! What happens in a digital world bereft of digital trust?! Warning: it's only scary if you actually THINK ABOUT IT!

  2. A more...fecund description of quantum computing: a "question", in the form of states and "spins", is posed to the universe, which then solves it, because that's what the fabric of the universe DOES. Conventional computing would remain a critical element of a quantum computer system, serving, as they do, slightly different purposes. I didn't say it would be a BETTER description...just a bit more suggestive of significance.
