The idea of turning it into a Cloud when you need it is really nice! Does that mean though, that your files are going to be stored on a Microsoft server at all times?

I dont think so, not to sure about that but will find out more info on it, but i should think that they would offer an option for companys to host there own server for the applications.

Yeah, I replied as I was watching the video. There was a mention of Sharepoint being used - so perhaps it'll integrate in that. Microsoft may actually have a stinking good business product here!

I think they may be onto a winner here for the first time, but we will have to wait and see, most of the applications now that microsoft are coming up with are more like citrix as they also now allow you to host an application from server 2008 like you could in citrix. But lets see what they will do will post more when I have more info.
