What's going to happen to all that hardware when every block has been found?
Are the processors too specific to to anything else?, or will we see some interesting projects that create new algorithms to make use of all that running infrastructure?

If the 1mil per month figure was accurate, they'd need a pretty profitable gambit to keep the infrastructure going. I'd imagine they'll sell what they can at bulk rate, or it'll be outdated enough at that point they just sell it for scrap.
