I do not understand this cloud stuff. I just bought a new video editing program where 3 GB of cloud storage is included. I’m scratching my head, wondering just why would I let anyone have my personal videos, financial data, business workings, or whatever? Once someone else has it, you’ve lost physical ownership.

None of this would be secure once it leaves my own hard drive, which is seldom connected to the net.

Interesting. Seems that corporate apps will likely go this way, the return of the mainframe, eh?

Interesting idea. And I would think a natural evolutionary one. This could start a new technology trend in OSs.

Apps packaged with Capstan are said to be "only 12-20MB larger than [the] application itself" and are complete virtual images that can run on any hypervisor that supports OSv.

That sounds like a lot, to me.
