I don't like the concept of 'over the wire' computing for my personal use. I want to know where my backups are, I want to be able to lay my hands on them. And I don't want to be denied programs or data if I am not connected to the internet. I just went through a period where my wireless was down and had to use a public network with all its problems and I know I'd be majorly PO'd if I had been denied the utility of the laptop and software that I've paid for.

Clouds just don't work for me. Some people love the concept, I doubt that I'll ever be one of those.
