Razael :	(09 September 2010 - 10:24 AM) Well I was thinking she would start by slapping me in the face and biting me but sure.
Aerith :	(09 September 2010 - 09:58 AM) You want her to step on your nuts, don't you?
Razael :	(09 September 2010 - 05:18 AM) I am terribly attracted to the Australian Prime Minister for some reason. She is like if Gillian Anderson and Thilda Swinton had a baby with a little bit of my boss going into the mix as well.
Cel Merion :	(08 September 2010 - 05:08 PM) Woo, just started Baten Kaitos. Is something wrong when I already hate the PCs?
Aerith :	(08 September 2010 - 02:43 PM) What a blight this horrid box of random text is.
Rubedo :	(08 September 2010 - 11:23 AM) That explains the clean up going on.
Noir :	(08 September 2010 - 11:13 AM) Fact: AIDS give you superhuman powers
Albireo :	(08 September 2010 - 09:28 AM) That's an odd fact.
Razael :	(08 September 2010 - 08:17 AM) Fact: You can get aids from licking batteries.
Mushroom :	(08 September 2010 - 07:51 AM) also you get aids. just saying.
Nocinderella :	(08 September 2010 - 04:10 AM) Don't forget Flame, it also costs the afflicted person the ability to actually see words sometimes, words as in... anything thats posted ANYWHERE. So donate Dreamers, I will not argue this.
Flame :	(08 September 2010 - 03:43 AM) I'm starting up a new charity so please donate jumpers, blankets and warm hats for people who are too cold to even feel emotions. It's a horrible disease which causes relentless swelling of the ego and the inflicted's balls to shrink to almost nothing.
Phisix :	(08 September 2010 - 03:30 AM) Say it, don't spray it!
Mushroom :	(08 September 2010 - 02:53 AM) I WILL NOT RELENT~!
Rubedo :	(07 September 2010 - 10:13 PM) Hate to say it, but Shout needs a boost. Needs to be upgraded to "Scandalious Steamy Shoutbox".
Rubedo :	(07 September 2010 - 10:09 PM) Only thing missing was da hotel Californa.
Sigs Minock :	(07 September 2010 - 09:47 PM) chat was so full of life yesterday...

If this is in the wrong section, move it as you will.

I am starting this thread to discuss with you all the advent of Public Cloud Operating systems(to my knowledge). And any effects it may have on our PC/Console gaming. For those who do not know; cloud computing is Internet-based computing, whereby shared resources, software and information are provided to computers and other devices on-demand, much like the electricity grid. To simplify, instead of running Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, etc off of your computers hard-drive. The OS is run off the internet. A noteworthy OS of this type will be released Late 2010(Chrome OS, Google's first try at the OS market).

Now to relate this to a topic relevant to this board. What are your thoughts on the following questions.

First, will the Cloud OS take the market from the "local" OS?
Second, how does this switch effect the companies that make our hardware?
And finally third, Does this affect PC gaming at all?

I look forward to what you all have to say.
