1180 qbit machine was recently announced. Of course, there are a lot of details behind claiming such a large number - like how well does it *really* work? You could make a million qbit machine tomorrow but noise or other limitations could make it useless (like creating a 10,000 HP racecar but it's too heavy to move). So the *effective* number of qbits remains to be seen. Announcement here

What is the equivalent of the number of qbits in a classical computer? The number of transistors?
