There are probably many different challenges; here is one: It is getting difficult to continue doubling the speed of a single processor every few years, as has been the case in the past. Processors continue getting faster, but not much. The future lies in using multiple parallel processors - 2, 4, 8, or eventually even hundreds or thousands of them in a single machine (many processors can be placed on a single chip). Chips with these capabilities are already on the market - like the Core 2 Duo by Intel. However, much of the existing software will have to be rewritten to take advantage of multiple processors.
