Windows Even though I'm still not quite sure what "the cloud" actually is (it's the internet, right?), Microsoft has just announced that it will be releasing 'Windows Cloud' at its Professional Developers Conference later this month. Windows Cloud (a temporary codename) will apparently be based on Windows Server, but with new features and characteristics. Steve Ballmer made the announcement at a Microsoft-sponsored conference for IT managers in London.

last i recall a few years back a bunch os MS devs left the company and formed xcerion.com ( http://xcerion.com/ )

which already has a rather nice cloud os (as do a few others but theirs is easily one of the 3 best).

I wonder if MS ever goes, "damn, wish we had them back." ;)

They could just buy them back. Look at Apple, Steve Jobs, and NEXT.
