   You have to wonder - but businesses accustomed to getting cheap-as-free   
   upgrades of ~2^N in raw compute every few years will doubtless still   
   expect to scale their capabilities upward accordingly. When they can't,   
   it's gonna be real interesting to see what kind of renewed interest   
   there'll be in maximizing efficient use of the available resources, vs.   
   the "throw a beefier computer at it" approach that has very much been   
   standard practice for the last ~30 yrs.
