There is still heat generated by the act of computation itself, unless you use something like reversible computing but I don't believe there's any current way to do that.

And even then, superconducting semiconductors are still going to be some ways off. We could have superconductors for the next decade in power transmission and still have virtually no changes to processesors. I don't doubt that we will eventually do something close to what you describe, but I'd say it's easily a long way off still. We'll probably only be seeing cheaper versions of things that already use superconductors, like MRI machines.
