Do you expect authors, as an example, to do all their writing in a

documents in a browser? How about accountants? How about programmers,
graphic artists and musicians? The question isn't am I serious, but
have you really given any thought to your position?
In essence, the same way as companies used to use a main frame (and
those who still do must be laughing their asses off at all the problems
companies face who use scads of individual Windows PCs).
However, the average ISP service is too slow for using a cloud as a
straightforward replacement for a mainframe. Even if your ISP was your
cloud service provider, the lag may be too much. You'd need a half and
half solution, where the main application is on the cloud, and your
client has an more complicated interface than just remote display and
input.
That last is true today. Will it remain true? Are you sure, in other
words, that we have reached the limit of throughput speed, and lag will
always be the deal-killer?
