I think the centralisation of computer power in huge data centres has great opportunities to cut ineffiencient and wasteful power consumption, therefore I applaud this. Sadly, it looks like we will consume a lot of energy in the data centres as well as running a, say, Core Duo computer at home. Maybe true thin clients will take off some day so we can harbour the advantages of centralised computing power.
