Thou I do not yet know how to link a story to this I am sure there's someone that can find the story to link it easily enough. I saw this information on Fox news last Friday.

There is a new Techology called 'Cloud Power' It can work two ways.
One, say you got to work and realized you forgot your files on your Laptop at home. You can have or get an account with say, Hotmail or Yahoo, sign in and link up to 'Cloud Power' and go to your Laptop remotely and retrieve your wanted files.

Another way to do it is buy the 'Cloud Power Server' and bring it with you anywhere you go and you can gain acces to your computer-s- from bascially anyway.

As with any new wonder..technology there's always a dark side too..human nature can sometimes suck..heh. The part about it being able to remotely get into your computer from anywhere with your account or Server. I can imagine where's there's a will there's always a way for a hacker to find a way to get in new tech. I hope inventors place plenty of safe guards with it. And people that buy this new gadget, I hope they find a way to make sure they are not remotely hacked.

Sorry, I can't find anything on it. Maybe try the Fox News website?
Is this technology from Google? I think I may of heard of it too

How would that work if your computer is off? Lol.

I've been using TightVNC for a few years. It allows you to use your computer remotely. But it has the disadvantage of requiring that your computer be powered on, at least in sleep mode.

Getting TightVNC or other remote access software setup and working can be challenging though, I'm glad to see an easier solution available.

Cloud power! I don't want to be rude, but I have to admit this one gave me a good laugh first thing Monday morning.

Anyway, as a more polite member pointed out previously - cloud computing is not a new technology.

I know not everyone is a geek like me, so I can imagine the confusion that marketing departments have caused: "Buy Our New Computer Cloud9! Its got Cloud Power!"
