It's very interesting times we live in, applications that we used to install on our local desktops are increasingly finding their way into the cloud. Word processors, spreadsheet and even photo editors, can now be utilized using just your browser. From a personal stand point, the operating system which I use to interact with these applications, is becoming less and less important. Do you think so too?

I think the operating system is still an important factor in deciding the applications to use.

i don't see how your operating system can not an important factor to consider. not all are the same for example, vista or xp? linux ow windows? and for your info, osx is for apple pc, its a choice of hardware.

Thank you for pointing it out (that OSX is for Apple PC), the reason I included OSX in the choice was because it belongs to the family of UNIX, owing to its BSD heritage, hence the post was focusing more on operating system aspect, not on the hardware choice. But your point is taken.
