Hmmmm, you forgot to account for the following :
1) the main-stream emergence of pre-emptive tasking and
   multi-threaded OS which will allow for better real-time
   action type games
2) decent graphics APIs are only now comming to the PC realm
   which will allow for fewer bugs (eventually !!??!) and
   faster graphics -- plus will allow for full use of folks'
   graphics cards [especially now with 3d video cards comming
   out]
3) multi-threaded games will allow home-PCs to use multiple
   CPUs for one or more applications. This does not address the
   various bottle-necks which will still be present (eg. video
   throughput) but will *certainly* improve speed allowance for
   such things as AI and rendering.

Now the *real* reason that you should fear for the future of
PC gaming is that you are getting older, more experienced, and
more jaded.

Anyway, happy gaming folks,
   Scott
