First programmable quantum computer created

First time I heard of the idea of quantum computers was ten years ago. Few things between then and now but discouraging news. But as things go here it is:
"Using a few ultracold ions, intense lasers and some electrodes, researchers have built the first programmable quantum computer. The new system, described in a paper to be published in Nature Physics, flexed its versatility by performing 160 randomly chosen processing routines."
