BUY SOFTWARE? HOW PASSE!

Ben Arnoldy, staff writer of the Christian Science Monitor, has a good story about the high tech revolution that is coming. It's called "cloud computing." According to Mr. Arnoldy, which side you are on in the war between the revolutionaries and the counterrevolutionaries depends on where your software and data sits. In the traditional model, people buy software and load it on the hard drives of the pc's. In the new era, users' software and data sits on the network. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
