My vision of the future of technology is one where old technology is reused, and recycled. I wouldn't mind using repurposed 50 year old storage devices if they still work. I would love to see interface tech that allows me to use 30 year old salvaged monitors.
From a software perspective, I would imaging that computers would do a lot more to help validate the intentions of human programmers and that computers will do a lot of the programming themselves.
I would like to see almost all tech powered by renewable sources.
Material science - plastic and other horrible materials should be done away with. I actually think we have gone backwards with respect to materials producing virtually indestructible waste material that poisons our water and air.
