AHA! Another Prediction of mine shinning!... Cloud computing!!!

Some time ago I posted a prediction that all this bickering about vista, xp,
Linux, and macs, is useless.

In the future there will be no "desktop" OS in the manner that we have them
now, rather the OS will run via the internet.
As I said in my original post, there will be a lite "OS" that will just be a
layer to load the real interface.. the real interface will all be web based.
This lite OS will most probably be linux based... as well as the servers
that the real OS will be running on be linux.

I see no place for windows here... although old OS's will be compatible. Of
course vista will be dead (THANK GOD) - GOOD RIDDENS CRAPISTA!!

Microsoft will struggle to keep up with this changing technology.. but its
flagship = windows will be usless.

For those who dont understand how this is possible, all I have to say, is
that it is technically possible to have almost LIMITLESS BANDWIDTH!
With limitless bandwidth you really dont care where the OS is... if its
located on your own disk or somewhere else.

I will not reveal however how this limitless bandwidth is possible yet...
these guys in the link below are talking about fiber optics which to me is
low tech.

This prediction is being verified by many sources again and again. The buzz
word for all this is "CLOUD COMPUTING"

Here is some confirmation

http://chris.pirillo.com/2007/10/28/the-future-of-the-operating-system-is-on-the-web-2/


and here is my original post>>>>>

At last!!!>> I am announcing THE NEW ERA OF OS's
I decided to announce the future so I can end this fussing about Windows,
MacOS, Ubuntu Linux etc.

One thing is for sure... Vista is the doomsday machine for Microsoft whether
you like it or understand it or not. It is true.

The future is different than you all think. But I know it.

SO who will win? Windows, MacOSX, or Ubuntu Linux?

The answer is NONE OF THEM!

So who will win and how?

Simple.

There will be no desktop "OS".. everything will be web based... your whole
OS will be online.

This will be possible because of the new extremely fast internet connection
speeds.

-You wont have to download anything because it will already be "there"

-You will have unlimited space because the data will not be stored
locally...

-All apps will install with one click and never have a configuration problem
because they will not even be installed on your own computer,rather they
will be like modules only being activated on the server.

-Updates will be automatic, you will only be asked if you want the update...

-Sending a 1 gb file to a friend will be almost instant since it will never
even pass through "your" computer rather it will be relayed from the
network.

What will be the underlying OS on your PC running this web based OS? It will
probably be a thin and lite opensource version of Linux.

However existing computers will also be able to log onto this web OS with
their "obsolete bulky monsterous OS's"

Who will win the web based OS war is another thing.... but one thing is for
sure... it wont be Microsoft!

Vista is killing Microsoft and its going down.
The fact is that the best man will win since switching to a new "OS" will be
like surfing to a new web site.

There will be an OS war like never before... and all this competition will
benefit the consumer who will get everything for free!

Wars for giving something out for free?

YES.. because whoever controls this Web OS will be able to make money like
Google does.

All this is not new.... this is what they thought computing would be when
computers started to exist!
They thought there would be several super duper mainframes that would do all
the work and then millions of stupid cheap "terminals" that people would
use. In fact The president of IBM Thomas K. Watson is said to have claimed
that 5 supercomputers are enough to serve the world.
(this probabaly is a misquote, see "famous misquote" on this page
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_J._Watson )

He said it because he was thinking of central computing. And I believe that
this is a solution now that the internet is getting faster.

As you see things are going full circle... but it would not be that way IF
VISTA WAS GOOD.

If vista was good then there would be no need for other solutions for many
years to come. Do you all now understand the significant historical
implications of Vista's FLOP?

Vista unintentionally will change computing forever! HA!

Perhaps an engineer is reading this message now, and he will get the idea im
talking about that will change the computing world.Under this perspective it
will be I that will have changed the world :)

Hardware will be CHEAP AS DIRT to run this thing. There will even be
machines with no hard drive at all... just a flash drive to boot up the
machine..

THERE ARE ALREADY SUCH MACHINES AVAILABLE.. :

See the ZONBU

http://chris.pirillo.com/2007/05/23/live-zonbu-linux-pc-demo/

more videos about the zombu here:

http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=zonbu&hl=en

I am talking about under $100 for a computer...this will enable the whole
world to be online, and this will indeed have an impact on humanity like
nothing ever seen before in history.

This also means that your "computer" will be available in any place YOU are.
For example, you go to an internet cafe, you log onto YOUR account and
instantly your own desktop is there for you, you log onto the office account
and you have your office desktop at home.. this is simple its possible and
convienent and IT WILL HAPPEN. THIS will be the death of Microsoft. Not
Linux, not MACOS, since its Microsoft that will not be ableor willing to
follow this course of web based OS.

Why?

Simply because MS doesnt think like that, they want to sell their desktop
OS, and they are not flexible fast enough.

The only drawback I see to this is that many people won't want to store
their data on someone else's server.

lol I know all this and google has several things online like spreadsheets
and word processors..

but its NOT A COMPLETE OS like I am saying (YET)

well you will be able to download data to a personal storage

but now everyone is using gmail and other services to keep data online
already...

its convinence that will lead people to do this...

Take your prediction and $3.95 to any Starbucks. Both would be good for a
cup of coffee. On the way back, with your ability to predict, purchase some
lottery tickets :)

I should hope so!

Sensitive data is what I am talking about, not how to configure Windows
Fail, chicken recipes or the PTA meeting schedule ;-)

For some things, I'd do it too. For sensitive data, I'd rather not.

Apparently not in Spain.
1gb free online disk space

Not much. Do they have a "premium" or "ultimate" plan where you pay for
more than 1GB of storage?

Well, don't laugh quite yet. It's actually old news, as I read about the
possibility several years ago. The reasons cited were compatibility for
everyone, more storage on your own system, the end of software piracy, among
other things. Although there has been great improvements in the network
infrastructure, I don't see super high speed any time real soon that
everyone can take advantage of. Naturally, only large cities will have such
super speeds first, and likely once again the government will have to step
in and force providers to supply such speed to smaller communities.

No particular OS was singled out, but the article paid most attention to
Microsoft and it's piracy problems.What bothers me about all of that, is
maybe having to pay monthly or yearly for the service, and it never ending.
One could pay over and over the cost of what used to be a one time OS
purchase. (Well until the upgrade of course LOL) Maybe Linux would be free,
maybe it wouldn't given the costs of maintaining the servers. Those who MUST
use windows based technology would be stuck with payments I think.

Not going to worry about it much for now, as I don't see such a thing fully
implemented any time soon. Heck, it took 5 years after the closest large
town to me got high speed until this little town finally got it. I won't be
holding my breath.

The problem with 'internet' everything is that a high speed wide bandwidth
service is not available to a huge amount of people living in remote areas.
Satellite services do not work well in bad weather as many in Canada could
tell you. Snow, ice storms, tornadoes, hurricanes, cyclones, tsunamis etc
take out just about any form of contact with ISP services, as do road
accidents where vehicles take out poles carrying the wire based services.

This kind of computing has been talked about for a long time, and still
nobody has come up with a good way of ensuring total reliability for
everybody. Many people in my part of the world struggle to get a dialup
service, let alone anything else.

Cloud computing is an apt name for the 'technology' presently. Try Cloud
Nine.

It could be done more than 100 years ago...
