The problem with the whole concept of the "network is the computer" is that vast numbers of us don't have the "sufficiently high bandwidth" to make the network experience indistinguishable from the computer experience. I also don't want to rent applications from sunw or msft or anyone else. Lastly, no matter what system you care to discuss, any computer connected to a network has a security problem, especially if you are storing your data on a remote storage system that is not physically in your possession. Simply put, that idea was run up the flagpole and didn't get any salutes.
