I bet we'll see 256 one of these days.

I doubt it. A mailman won't deliver mail faster when he is using a
Ferrari instead of bicycle. I think we are going to see slower,
cheaper, more energy efficient computers with back-to-basic software
for every day / office use.

For example an embedded ARM or MIPS system running at 300MHz has
enough power to run most common applications. It consumes at least 10
times less energy compared to a standard PC.
