I'm not in the field, but I'd wager we're due for a shift in the current software-hardware relationship. With the end of Moore's law continuing to improve practical computing performance will requisite making more efficient use of transistors. Or maybe processors will go 3D and we'll have a few decades of relative status quo - I'm hardly Nostradamus
