My Wife's Technology Predictions

With a new year and CES upon us, it's go time for pundits to predict the future of the technology industry. Lori considered the question of how technology might affect X-Plane and pronounced:
Pixel shaders will get shadier.
I think she is right. It is only a question of how long until they are so shady that they are basically pitch black. (At that point, I expect a significant boost in framerates!)

And what does this mean for vertex shaders? Would the same analogy go for them too ;-) ??? But they can't turn pitch black ... but maybe result in a "pitch flat" terrain ???
