What do you mean by a set-top box? I think "the cloud" [sic] will stick around as a useful abstraction tool, but like with all buzzword-ised technologies it will eventually become just another thing you use when the solution it offers is appropriate to the problem you have. -Dan _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
