Interesting, short, and frankly, fun, paper related to this: Ultimate physical limits to computation. A few of the concepts explored are beyond my understanding, but the conclusion is rather memorable: the "ultimate laptop", the most capable vaguely computer-esque system conceivable with a mass-energy of one kilogram, is essentially an expanding cloud of superheated plasma.
I'd previously stumbled upon that article, but decided not to include it since it focused on too many variables and took a less extreme approach (A 1-kg black hole? That's it?). This was before I...

I enjoyed reading this article very much, thank you for sharing it with us.

Thanks for bringing it back to my attention; I added it to the "Further reading section. Diff.
