Take a look at a company called Kaviza (recently bought by Citrix). They have been doing some good work in terms of deploying VMs onto thin clients.
Lets be honest though. Google Docs sucks compared to the Office suite. I've tried to use Google Docs for serious work, but a lot of functionality is still missing. Even if the world moves to web apps, I don't think Microsoft is doomed. An OS still has to run on the thin client, and Microsoft can develop web apps. I'd be very interested to try out Office 365 when it goes live.
Cloud based apps don't have to be web apps. Just ask Apple.
