Why does everyone think it will work this go around? What about the cost of storage and its probable someone will go under and take everyones files with them. Corporations aren't going to support it as businesses can't really risk their data on cloud systems. open source anything seems like a real good idea of which I am a supporter but I see chrome o/s to late to the party as Linux seems to be strong and well worth the effort. Also personal storage seems cheap even if you download some occassionly to a flash drive or personal hard drive with no subscription cost just the products which have a payback period. Interesting post and definitely fuel for the mind. This is really not new as it was tried and failed in the 90′s.
