    They can also log if we stopped watching the movie before it ended. Let's add a one-week buffer to the data, so that people who stop watching, go to bed, to work the day after,etc and continue watching a few days later are accounted for.

    The JEDI (SITH) use their MIDOCHLORANS to channel ENERGY from a PARALLEL universe. The light SABER device is a CONDUIT, not a ENERGY storage MEDIUM.

    You're also taking for granted that the current computer will be capable of running Windows 7 in the first place. It's not always going to be the case.

    From the demos done on stage, it syncs everything in real time. Photos taken on an iPhone were sent immediately to the iPad and the Mac, documents edited on one device were pushed to the other devices, etc.

    "It just works" comes to mind.

    It's not "cloud computing", it's automatic online synching done right. It's called iCloud simply because "cloud" is today's buzzword.

  25. Re:Lack of XP support isn't news anymore on Want iCloud With Windows? Ditch the XP · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Although all of this ultimately just hurts Apple. It drives people to buy newer PCs and newer copies of Windows. It drives sales to "the enemy".

    Does it really? If it pushes people to buy a newer PC, it also opens the option of switching to a Mac while they're at it.

    If they need iCloud for their iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, then it means they're already familiar with how Apple software works, switching to Mac OS X isn't a big leap to do and using VMWare Fusion or Parallels they'll be able to keep using their Windows software.
