Mighty Microsoft: so-so, Sahib...

The popularity of 'The Cloud' eludes me. External hard-drives and extra storage isn't that expensive these days. And if we can't trust those around us, what makes us think we can trust strangers?

And while Mighty Microsoft is still ballyhooing its cloud storage and its loyal enterprise customer base, it isn't bragging about the fact that users of the now defunct Windows XP are still twice as numerous as those using any flavor of their latest Windows 8/8.1, and about half the desktop world still prefers Win-7.

Meanwhile, Apple announces a public test beta of their latest OS-X version, and it looks somewhat similar to this Unix-derived PC-BSD that I've got on here...
Possibly because both came originally from Unix code, and are still related.

And I like this PC-BSD - it's more exclusive. And probably more fun to play with.
