Will technology one day progress to the point where there will not be a need to distinguish between hardware and software meaning that no difference would be perceived between the 2 types of interface?

No, hardware is of necessity a physical mechanism and software is procedural information. The same software can run on very different hardware, as long as it interprets it the same way producing the same physical effect will have the same result. But hardware without software will do nothing (unless the hardware is fixed single purpose hardware that needs no software).


What is the role of software?

Computer software tells the hardware what to do. Without any software, the hardware would be worthless. Think of the software as a subject in school, and the hardware as you or your brain.

This learning is usually accomplished through downloads or CD's that are loaded into the computer.
