Stupid Network; Intelligent Client; Stupid User

I believe in the first statement. The rise of the Stupid Network has happened and is happening. As processor power improves more and more intelligence is being moved to the client. The question is how much, and how much does it rely on an intelligent user. The early adopters are mostly intelligent enough to work through the issues. The mass market won't happen until the how the f*** do I make this work issues are ironed out.

So, my question for now; how much intelligence ends up in the client and how much stays at the edge?
