Windows Cloud?!

[aimeeandbeatles]

I was looking up info on Windows 96 (yes, it did exist -- never released), and found something on Windows Cloud. Thoughts??

It's a server. You'll probably never see it.

Probably a server edition of Windows 7. As Cutlass said, you likely wont see it in use except possibly from the client side.

Not a buzzword really. "cloud" is an old word used in servers.

True, but it is now becoming a marketing buzzword.

Windows 96 (yes, it did exist -- never released),

There was a 95B (1996) and a 95C (1997). If I remember correctly, one introduced IE4, embedded in the system and one brought support for USB.
