The OS is in the cloud. All that would be needed would be maybe some memory to cache frequent information and a video output and input handling. But this is not necessarily the only way to do things. Perhaps a happy medium where the server farms generate some very compressed precise instructions for the GPU that is housed in client hardware to execute and display. It is definitely the future, but the implementation will probably be different than we have heard of so far.
