The cloud strikes again

Someday perhaps I'll understand why people and businesses want to put their own data on computers that belong to some corporation in some distant location which depend on the Internet to work at all.

If something breaks on your in-house IT and you're the IT guy, you can do something about fixing it. If something breaks in the cloud, all you can do is whine about it. And wait for someone else somewhere to fix it, eventually. The cloud demotes your IT department to the "using classes," as the BOFH would put it. At the BOFH's company, those "cloud solution" sales people wound up in the subbasement with the PFY, a hole punch and a soldering iron. Good place for them.
