I thought the cloud name and concept was childish and rather insulting to
the intelligence of Mac users. Apparently MS thinks the name and concept
is worth copying. Lol! Once again, I think Apple is going in some wrong
directions, like canning FireWire and cutting down the Power/features on
the white MacBooks. In the end they will get the software straitened out,
but to put out buggy crap software sure reminds me of Microsoft.
