Historically hardware has driven software which in turn drives hardware which... until there was Vista. With Win7 that cycle was broken and 7 would run just fine on hardware that Vista would drag to it knees. So new hardware sales had to be driven by something else; enter touch screens and Windows 8.x -> Win10.
There are other things in the pipe like facial recognition and bio-metrics, but touch screen is the single hardware upgrade that will most redefine how we use computers. I personally think that voice recognition will rival that at some point, but we're just now beginning to explore that with Siri, Google Now, Cortana and Alexa.
