Quantum Computing is so Cool

Quantum computing would be so cool. It would allow essentially non-hackable data, and this could be useful especially for banking and finances. What quantum computing is is essentially this: while the classic computer uses 1's and 0's as bits to form strings of bytes as data, quantum computing would have values BETWEEN 1 and 0 that could be used for data, allowing parts of 1 and parts of 0 to be used simultaneously, allowing multiple things to be computed at the same time. These data units are called "qubits". This would revolutionize computing as we know it and change how we think about computers.
