I would be hard pressed to be convinced that going 100% web-based is 100% a good thing. I think that's simply overestimating the value of web-based technology over the human desire for having different modalities of doing things. While different technologies may come into fashion and push others out of fashion, the human desire for having choices will NEVER go out of fashion. Perhaps the title of the article should be, "EVOLVE Windows 2008 (into something different)", but that doesn't sound as sexy as what's given.
