Imagine a world where the PC you buy today, will last 10 or 15 years.
And... It will NEVER need upgrading. Or even fixing.
Ridiculous?
One specifc company is already working on this exact premise. And it's technology that could bring down Microsoft.
Here's how it works:
Your computer would be connected via the internet to a computer cluster.
(This "computer cluster" is just a data center full of servers)
And... Instead of doing any processing work, your computer would instead just act as a midway point between you and the cluster.
All fetching, filing and retrieving (all the hard work a computer does)... Would instead be done by a super-fast computer cluster.
Computing resources would then be a metered service, similar to public utilities like electricity, water or the telephone.
What would this mean?
Your computer would never need to be upgraded. As all the processing work your computer does, would be done by the computing cluster.
What's more... There would be far less technical problems, as any problems can be fixed by expert on-site technicians at the computer cluster.
The result is a cheaper and much faster home PC.
You may think this sounds like a pipe dream.
But... Listen up:
The technology that described above is already fully functional, and the company is already bringing in substantial revenue from Japanese companies.

MUHAMMAD

I don’t want much, I just want everything
Thought that I could, do almost anything
One step in front of the other
Thought that I could do it alone
In the blink of an eye, it’s just another day
Telling me why, I’ll find another way
Got this feeling, got me reeling
I can almost start believing
Now there’s me and you
And we are not alone
You and me
We are together now
Through my window, I can see there’s
More than you and more than me
Me and you
And we are not alone
Different view
We are together now
Through my window, I can see
Our wildest dreams could be so real
I see a spark, it starts a fire
Is this the one worth waiting for?
Thought that I could do it without you
Can’t exist like this anymore
Now there’s me and you
And we are not alone
You and me
We are together now
Through my window, I can see there’s
More than you and more than me
Now there’s me and you, you and me
We are not alone and we are together
Through my window I can see
Our wildest dreams could be so real
Thought that I could, do almost anything
One step in front of the other
Thought that I could do it alone
In the blink of an eye, it’s just another day
Telling me why, I’ll find another way
Got this feeling, got me reeling
I can almost start believing
Now there’s me and you
And we are not alone
You and me
We are together now
Through my window, I can see there’s
More than you and more than me
Me and you
And we are not alone
