On: D-Wave Defies World of Critics With ‘First Quantum...

[brimpa]

It seems that every time I read articles about quantum computing, the increase in computing power is described with gaping hole:

1. Qubits can be 1 and 0 at the same time

2. ...

3. Solve hard problems!

Can someone provide a link that fills in the middle somewhat? Preferably, aimed at an audience with something closer to undergrad engineering degree and than a PhD?
