Oh, look, they've added clouds to the drawings of servers and clients in the 2010 version of this patent.

@Nancy - thanks for the link. I spent my life up to about 40 years old without TV, so the reference was lost on me until I watched the clip. Just one issue - "de plane" actually arrived. I was imagining that you were referring to a "stranded party" show (Gilligan's Island, I believe) and that the plane didn't ever really arrive.

Anyway, thanks for the cultural education :)

OK, it may seriously just be me, but whenever I hear about "the cloud" I think of this: de plane! de plane! and my brain just substitutes "de cloud! de cloud!"

IS it just me?

Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
