I guess I'm one of the smaller minority who prefers a hybrid with a significant amount of local compute power and remote compute power. Going all-in with thin client architecture is something I've never been a fan of, namely because it puts a fundamental resource I need to do my work in someone else's control/hands. Much of the time, this is advantageous (and I prefer someone else managing things for me when it works) but I run into far too many snags where its nice to know I can get something done with local resources that I have control over when needed.
