Where did you see this before?
I think the economies of scale will eventually draw most to using hosted services, even if it's as simple as better bottom line for the IT supply chain.
It's a little like managing your own email or website server on site - the overhead ends up being more resource consuming than farming it out, and we haven't really seen people switching back to their own servers.
