Ubuntu for one
In Synaptic, select "mark packages by task", then scroll down to "cloud
computing cluster" and "cloud computing node".

Google is acutely aware of the problems with long term storage in the cloud.

Not the Internet, but your _personal_ cloud.   The thing that you access
at home using your PDA, e-Book reader and the like.

Computers for home and SOHO usage are going in two contradictory directions:
* Smaller -> thin client only;
* Bigger -> network clusters/Beowulf clusters;

The thin client is what you'll take when you go out.
The network cluster that functions as your cloud, where your real data
will be stored.
