Well, this is what people keep telling again and again, as if it was enough to repeat it to make it real, but I still have to see one web application that I would prefer to use over a desktop one.
Sure, we have hugely complex webapps, but the browser is a really a shitty environment to think of it as a "platform" to do anything else than to read documents.

Sure you have, I would make a huge bet you've used a website that you were unwilling to install the app for. On-demand, truly cross-platform app deployment is a huge feature, not to be underestimated.
