It's hard to tell with these Internet startups if they're really interested in building companies or if they're just interested in the money.

The desktop metaphor was invented because one, you were a stand-alone device, and two, you had to manage your own storage. That's a very big thing in a desktop world. And that may go away. You may not have to manage your own storage. You may not store much before too long.
