cloud?
So does this mean that I will be able to run my Access 97 databases from the 'cloud', what about all the 100mb photos I have in PSD format, or how about the music files I'm working on on my mac using Logic Express?

Where is all the versions of Access to be installed?, lets see, version 2, 97, 2000, XP(2002), 2003, etc
