the software is the most important part. the hardware should be all but irrelevant except for aesthetics.

That the software works correctly with the specific hardware is the important part.

That's the dream, but software pushes the envelope constantly, so much so that a computer that was cutting-edge a month ago is lagging today. If the hardware were irrelevant then we wouldn't be seeing faster and more efficient computers year after year.
