I guess I just meant that it seems far too many companies are announcing "future plans". Building such a large product is certainly possible, but there are so many other companies far ahead of them (shipping, or nearly shipping) that they will have a lot of ground to cover in little time. EDIT: After some more thought, it also seems like while the definition of what a cloud service is isn't solidified yet, but it's definitely something HP doesn't have any experience building, which is also a huge hindrance. Contrast that with Amazon, Salesforce, VMware, and others, and it seems like the gap is just enormous. Certainly not insurmountable, though.
