I'm still confused about Asus Open Cloud Computing

Computex is underway in Taipei, and Asus has a slew of mobile announcements we'll get to in other posts today. I'm scratching my head trying to grok the computer maker's cloud strategy, which looks good in this video but far removed from the reality I live in, or you. It's an idealized future of everywhere sync and help holograms that's more Star Trek than today's tech.

But the concept has meaning, and so there's no misunderstanding: Windows 8 plays an important role in Asus' cloud strategy. Microsoft issued Windows 8 Release Preview on May 31 and anticipates new PCs shipping with gold code for the holidays.

Asus describes AOCC as a "total solution for the ubiquitous cloud computing era" that "integrates software, services, and the latest innovations to develop an open and balanced architecture as it strives to provide the best solution for today's consumers".

Asus has talked open cloud computing before, but steps big time towards delivering on it with today's Computex announcements. The company also offers some services from the cloud today, upon which AOCC builds. It's vision of the future is more about ubiquitous sync and services.

BTW, someone please tell me what women executive will wear a big honking video watch like the one seen here?
