Tenchu: Re: "And to think, in another 20 years the company's R&D costs will be $320 quadrillion annually!"

Not sure where you get that. In 20 years, there are about 13 doubling periods (18 months). The factor is simply 2^13, or about 8000 times current R&D, which is about $4B per year. That comes out to about $32 trillion.
