Computer design can't influance what you see but what you can implement.
If computers still only had 512bytes of memory we'd be writing programs different then today making a trade off of computation speed for ram size.
If CPUs didn't have pipelines then parallelized algorithms wouldn't be as important and I feel that mutli-CPU machines would have taken off to make room for other forms of parallelization.
As the GP says, Galileo's telescope didn't make the universe smaller or larger, it just let him see things in that universe. Nothing changed but what he was holding.
