The entire PC and Windows ecosystem is based on that the purchaser is not the user. Corporate will keep purchasing sub-par hardware with a sub-par operating system and sub-par software, because they're looking at a primitive spec sheet and feature list, without taking anything else into account.
Developers (for corporate customers) will keep making their software as cheaply as possible and the user experience will continue to decline while Windows and PC sales increase to corporate customers. These platforms will continue to decline in relevance for consumer use.

That's my prediction.
