Five cloud computing myths exploded

RE: Five cloud computing myths exploded: Funny thing, Cloud Computing to me meant and still means that the "stuff" is stored mostly up in the sky rather than on my desk.
Take GMail. No software in my computer....
Take Yahoo mail, same. I can have the "stuff" stored (maybe less than safely) on a cloud and merely a few messages on my desk (or in my lap).
And I can or could us one of the word processors instead of Word or even the declining WPerfect loaded down here (i.e. not in the sky or on a cloud.
I'm not a pro, merely a user who tries to keep up with the clouds.
