Seems like I read somewhere that either MS or google was working on a future operating system that would not be installed on your computer(or maybe partially installed on your computer), it would be on the internet somewhere and your computer wouldn’t function without highspeed internet connection.

What ever happened to that? Or do I have it completely wrong? Personally, I hope it never happens.

Thin client keeps coming back as a rumor periodically. But the punch line is think client blows, there’s a reason the computing world left thin client behind, and no matter what they call it it’s still thin client.
