Who is Jason Scott? Seems like too common a name to be able to Google. Just an ordinary Netizen? In fact, that whole ascii.textfiles.com website seems really interesting, so thanks very much for pointing me/us to it. Definitive, indeed. The idea of server-central computing is seductive to me, but I like the idea of having a shell account somewhere, or a thinclient on my desk, or whatever. But given the realities of this world I decided rather to build a fatty FreeNAS system at home and keep it all in house. I still do periodic backups to CD too, just in case.
