It seems to me that the processor speeds of our personal computers are approaching a kind of singularity. Given our current GUIs and tasks that we tax our computers with, our processors simply have become fast enough to handle it all without much necessary improvement. For instance, I do a lot of freelance 3D modeling, and even I feel very comfortable on my midrange pro machine from around two years ago. I feel absolutely no pressing need to upgrade, and I can't foresee a job in the next three years that would require something faster. Outside of a computer farm, what's the point? When I can have Ps, Illy, Id, Modo, and correspondence programs open and busy at the same time, exactly at what point will I need to change my computing habits?
The futurist in me says, "When the interface changes." Steve Jobs mentioned, albeit sporadically, at D5 a computer which "wraps around your desk". Now, that would be something!
