cloud OS?
After around 25 years of enjoying peer-peer desktop computing with self
administration I look back to client/server models and want something for most of what I do without my own machine/network admin. How about a terminal/thin-client running a cloud distributed java byte-code OS with availability of byte-code apps including development? The only thing besides that I would want is hardware input/output like: CD/DVD, USB stick, memory card, etc. might give a rise to the hardware consumable market ... With the right model I think OS or network development is even possible -- Not a professional opinion unless specified. dale - http://www.dalekelly.org/ |

Rather vague. Most of what you do? Which is what? Java? Why? You're describing a services kiosk with limited functionality and limited privacy. Sandboxing makes the former inevitable. Cloud makes the latter inevitable. Is most of what you do shopping? If not then why put it on someone else's computer and why limit the functionality by using wrapper systems like Java? On the other hand, if shopping and services via kiosk is what you want then you need only wait. Win10 will probably get closer with every update. Or you could switch to an iPad and use apps. |

Microsoft would like Windows to be a cloud OS, just so MSFT can charge you rent on your software. [followup trimmed] |
