Yet the PCs are getting bigger every release of the OS.

The cloud is great as long as security and availability are not
important to you.


Fat PC's might be getting more scarce because components are smaller and
don't need cooling.
My 4 year old case is about 4 times larger than the typical PC.
Massive, but space in no concern, and components are ridiculously
easy to swap.
Thing is, except for graphics cards and an SSD, I haven't had to open
the case.
The cloud won't replace the desk top and on-site processing.
