I believe it’s been re-branded as cloud computing.

I am not sure that many Fortune 500 companies are going to want to go that direction.

If you have 5000 or more employees running Office on there PC’s it might use up a lot of server time.

If they could get Lotus Notes off of my PC it would eliminate a lot of trouble tickets from me.

You are damn right on that. Putting a PC with individual storage, etc on each desktop was a quantum leap backwards for corporate IT.

What’s good for you at home isn’t good in a business environment.

HOWEVER.

I’d rather use a Chromebook like machine and store all of the info on MY servers.
