- ktpsns 7y agoServer hardware is actually quite expensive. End users "smart" phones are cheap hardware, running dumb software which renders them as terminals for the cloud. That's sad because smartphone hardware is quite capable of doing useful work. (For instance, I have a 500GB MicroSD card in my phone which contains a copy of my OwnCloud)
