Now rumors out there about Apple and Google partnership to give .Mac a cloud computing boost.

“Cloud computing is all about companies getting as many computers as they need to get as much work done as possible. Cloud computing is the hot new thing in the world of technology right now; Apple is a complete laggard; and it knows it needs to fix it. So maybe Google and Apple are destined for ’strategic alliance’. Google appears to have attained one of the holy grails of computer science: a scalable massively parallel architecture that can readily accommodate diverse software.

“Cloud computing is the hot new thing in the world of technology right now,” writes Wired’s Fred Vogelstein. “Apple makes beautiful hardware, but it hasn’t improved on .Mac, its cloud based storage offering, in years. You get 1GB of storage on .Mac for $100. That’s laughable in an era where you can get double that for nothing.”

A later post I said about iPhone may impact, well another blog says “Will Bomb”; is the exact quote from the blog post title. Also Yahoo’s Buzz Log shows that searchers are really curious about the price, let see what will happen but I think that all this rumors and prognostication may come true and we better watch AAPL.
