Cloud computing is NOT for me. I want my software and data on my own little hard drive where whether it lives or dies is up to my negligence, not someone else's (I can handle that) ;). What I can't handle is some bigwig in some office somewhere that arbitrarily decides he/she can use something I've made any way they like in the name of merchandising/advertising because it resides on their servers. No thanks.

I have nothing expensive on my machine anyway. I tend to use free or cheap software, and the big guns? I wouldn't know how to use them if I had them and obviously I've found other software that gets the job done...lol. I don't NEED any cloud computing services (other than maybe backup) and I like it that way.

I don't want to do what we do on a tablet either. The desktop is maddening enough...lol.
