The notion of Emulated OpenVMS boxes made me wonder about something else
(again!).

Who is responsible for backups in a Cloud based system?
Who keeps the physical media?  Is there physical media?
Is it in a format that could be taken someplace else if
disaster strikes the Cloud System?

I guess I'm just a Gloomy Gus but every time I think of
The Cloud my mind comes  up with more and more reasons
why it seems like a really bad business decision.
