I've always been of the opinion that the web is great for displaying information. To use it as the central processor bugs me. When I ask my program to do something I want the attention of the processor. I don't want it going over the web (security issues) and then asking for some perhaps overworked server processor time. Then there is the issue of throughput. When I have a client executable all I need is the data, so much less iNet traffic. I've always been for web+desktop app. Rest of the world disagreed. Nice to see maybe it's coming back...to sanity! FWIW.
