I wrote a short story outlining where I think we'll in 15 years:
the year is 2032, Intel has purchased Viacom, Nvidia, and AMD. There are no longer gpu's, just pcie cpu socket cards that can fit anywhere from 4 to 12 x86 cpu's for parallel triangle drawing via microsoft's proprietary DirectX20 API which uses Intel's Proprietary VGPUPro Instruction set featured on Intel processors. Linux is long dead and buried, and Apple has completely given up on anything that isn't ARM. The latest flagship cpu is the i12-96900mkvll, a 4 core/4 thread cpu with 4 pcie lanes and, with monthly subscription, hyper-threading and turbo boost 4.0 technology. LinusTechTips is pulled from his life of cranking out hundreds of reviews for shitty overpriced audio equipment and scrapyard wars episodes per week, to answer to charges by Intel Corp related to featuring outdated cpu's in comparisons that show they were actually faster back then. Various benchmark tool vendors could not be reached for comment as to why every new arch when the tools are recompiled to only work with the latest hardware, that they give much higher numbers than any previous versions give when ran on the same systems.
The first generation of online intel fans have finally eaten themselves into an early casket from untreated diabetes and malignant ass cancer. The phrases "Should I upgrade my i7-4770k" and "Wait til next gen" still echo quietly across the graveyard for eternity.
Not bad. Could have said more rediculous things to make it funny tho.
