I'm not convinced on either part of that: I'm a cloud sceptic, because I remember what it was like in the old days with centralised processing and data and cloud feels like a less-secure version of that. I'm not convinced it's a business model that will survive so much as a fad that will pass.
And Android is good - but...it's not Windows and it's not desktop. Yet. It might be, one day, but there is a lot of investment in desktop out there and not all of it translates to mobile devices well, or vice versa. As MS has found with Win8...

Recently I've been responsible for migrating our company email into office 365 using cut off migration and designed a a Mail Gateway server for dealing with LOB Application generated data. Today the plan was put into execution, needless to say all the fine planning went down to a T.

Just installed the latest Java update. (yes yes, I know, that was my first mistake. Move on! )
At the end it has a notification about automatic updates being downloaded and installed, and there's a link that says "See instructions if you want to change this behaviour".
When you click the link, Notepad opens, but no file is loaded.
Is this a subtle hint that you can't change the behaviour??

Sounds like the installer works just as well as the framework!

You might as well - it's about as likely that you'll get any money out of it either way!

were you able to evaluate his Name, the Company and, let´s say, his Position in the Company?
then, and only then i would consider temptation as an Option...
but, in my opinion, answering to those "invitations" is a loss of lifetime mostly...
