    That you don't need the high end for gaming?

Just that the market for gamers is rapidly shrinking as well.

I don't have a particularly good picture of the size of the professional (soft|hard)ware market, other than everything in it being ridiculously overpriced compared to the cost of production.

I can, however, imagine a day when even the computing power for video and graphics production (Audio, too?) is offloaded to a far off server, leaving behind just the tablet / keyboard interface as the computer client for the artist.
