Obsolete Desktops

In a presentation in Dublin, Ireland in March 2010, Google sales chief Jim Haley stated that desktops would be irrelevant in three years (

Do you agree? Why or why not? What impact would that have on the types of hardware and software that are the most in demand?

I agree somewhat with Harley, because the more technology advances the smaller it gets, but the more space it can hold. We keep finding new things to make with it. I think we will have something that doesn't even resemble a computer. I cannot say for sure if it will be in the next three years. I think it could have a bad impact on the hardware that is in most demand now, because with the way technology is going, we may not need any of that hardware later on. I believe it will have a good impact of the software, because software just continues to evolve more and more everyday. It will be able to meet the demands that will come with forming new things, even something that is not even a computer.
