What is wrong is that a quantum computer doesn't consider all possible answers at the same time. Although the qubits are in a 'combination' of two possible final states. it's not as if each state represents one of the answers to the question. During a computation on your current computer the bits involved in the computation don't evolve towards an answer either (although a subset of them will).
