SUN Microsystems Jonathan Schwartz keeps singing Sun's favourite tune - that Web services, not desktop apps, are the future. "The majority of the applications that will drive the next wave of innovation will be services, not applications that run on the desktop. The real innovation is occurring in the network and the network services," Schwartz said.

One could live with both models.

I might gladly junk this piece of Windows PC xx to surf the web as long as the net conncetion was much faster, instant connect, and allowed local HD or usb storage with plenty of net storage too. Sounds like google though.

For my workstation, that must remain off line, I dare not risk connecting to the web for any reason and it is app oriented. I think Sun understands this, most mom & pop PCs are not running many/any apps anyway.
