Network storage != Virtual Machine
Authored by: neill on Oct 09, '08 12:56:18PM

I agree . . .I checked out their site and even created an account so I could get to a few more details about how it works. You create a new user on the Mac and enable Fast User switching . . . then using your admin account you "cloudify" the new user. My guess (although I could not find any real technical details) is that the process is no more than just a local user on your Mac with a networked home directory. No provision for network user accounts shared between machines or anything like that. The download of the appliance is only 551 Megs . . . so it is clearly *not* a virtualized Leopard session at all . . . at least that's what it looks like to me..
