[Elecraft] OT: 2m beam orientation

[Doug Person]

Not quite.  Dumb terminals were dumb. Rich web applications place a lot 
of the user interface rendering onto the client.  Not at all like dumb 
terminals.  The "Cloud" is a bit more complex than what an old mainframe 
did.  And we are only scratching the surface.  Better to think of cloud 
computing as distributed computing.  Properly done, its hard to tell 
where the client stops and the server begins.  And that would be the point.
