I don’t think the the OS will be in the cloud, that is far in the future, but things like storage of personalizations, documents, and syncing with your iTunes, iPhone, iPad, will be in the cloud.

Of course like all Apple rumors, this is just speculation based on limited information.

If you think Apple’s next Mac OS version, or any version in the near future is going to be cloud-based — that is stored elsewhere than on your computer. You are very wrong, it’s just not going to happen.

This is speculation outside of rational thinking, or at least not knowing what this actually means, in terms of how to leverage that kind of a system — or even what it means for the user.

This feature is not, I repeat NOT the actual OS that is getting to be cloud-based. And I can definitely imagine other purposes for the data center they’ve build.

if this means you can’t use your computer without internet, I’ll never upgrade again.

my ISP sucks and about twice a day I have no internet ranging from 10 minutes to many hours.

I’d like to see a cloud-based Time Machine. When TM writes files, it will write to a local hard drive and to a cloud-based server (probably sitting in their new data center in North Carolina) at the same time. If they do implement this, the big question will be are they going to offer this as a new service on mobileme, or will it be free?

I bet they’re going to integrate advertising into the OS per the recent patent renewal. Presumably they will make the OS a free download. Want to increase market share? Try giving away your product. And you can use the best operating system in the world for FREE – right after these messages.

I think you hit the nail on the head, but it’s using the cloud to integrate their platforms finally: Mac OS X, iOS, iTunes, all your data, seamlessly integrated in such a way that whatever you are using your data, music, apps, and everything that defines your computing experience as yours follows you.

Nice work putting two and two together here, and the name definitely makes sense but I’m not sure if it’s different enough from Snow Leopard and Leopard, too many leopards. I would be THRILLED if true cloud computing was built into 10.7.

Oh and nice photoshop graphic… lol
