I mean, if only there were a way to make the hardware dirt cheap, use only a little bit of RAM and storage (so it's not that affected by current proces) and just stream the content for a little monthly fee...

Microsoft offers cloud PCs, NVidia offers GeForceNow game streaming - and in this scenario MS could also offer the presumed Xbox streaming on those cloud PCs.

Hardware is getting more and more costly, thinclients + CloudPCs could be a side effect of all those price spikes.

You may be still laughing at the moment. Wait and see.
