I am flirting with the idea of having 1TB of RAM on my servers as a small start-up. Having 256TB in 20 years seems reasonable.

You're gonna need at least that much to run the Electron apps of 20 years from now...
A 128-bit CPU is not something I'd find outlandish in 20 years. OTOH, I was reading my e-mail on a 64-bit workstation (largely by accident, but still).

In any case, I'd be quite surprised to see a 64-bit CPU doing such heavy lifting in 2040.
