As much as I respect RMS, he does have a habit of condemning things without suggesting an alternative. I need my data to be available everywhere. Not only that, I need my data to be processable everywhere as well. When I switch machines, the UI should change as little as possible and the data should not change at all! Without complicated software installation/importing/exporting steps! That's the problem that web2.0 / cloud computing solves. If someone could come up with a viable free solution for it then people will happily switch. -- Anupam _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
