Am I missing something with cloud computing? I see it as a way for google, microsoft and the like to get your data and for governments to watch what you're up to. This is just putting all your confidential documents on a server, someone else's server? Al
-----Original Message----- The real action for Microsoft might come from its improved Window Server 8 OS, which should give commercial versions of Linux and Unix OS(s) like Redhat, SUSE, and Macs running osX more competition. Window Server 8 also targets VMware and other proprietary offerings from hardware/software giants like IBM and HP. It will also compete with third parties that offer cloud computing; because, it offers the cloud within an enterprise. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/000301cc744a$a3661540$ea323fc0$@com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
