The no more hard drive and persistent ram thing should be really interesting. Completely change how we do things.

Also, application specific processing... writing instruction sets for each application will be really interesting. Cell processing et al will be a thing of the past.

All of those years spent trying to educate my family and non-technical friends on the difference between RAM and HDD and explaining how it is confusing when they tell me they couldn't install a program because their laptop was "out of memory".... wasted!
