Personally, I do not like the idea of cloud based computing, for 
security reasons and ownership of files.  If the connection to the 
Internet is down on your end or theirs, you do not have access to your 
data.

Excellent points.  

The whole 1980s migration from central computers w/dumb terminals to
PCs was motivated in large part by the desire to spread the computing
load and sever the "umbilical cord/chain" that central mainframe
computers required.  In most rural areas of the U.S. today, dial-up
modem is as good as it gets, and that won't facilitate the "cloud".
