ASP model - a solution to Amiga software shortage?

Hello,

Talking ASP I mean e.g. Google Docs. My simple point since Amiga lacks programmers, software, compatibility etc. - why not thinking of sorting this out via ASP model?

All we need:
- superb browser (the software, perfect) or the proper proxy serving html (worse)
- dedicated application server
- additional formats/applications support at the server (numerous frameworks/plugins exist)

A simple idea that pretty much solves the problem in such applications as productivity and more.

Ideas? Comments?

I don't really think this is a good approach for basic tools. Word processors, spreadsheets & so forth need to be running locally.

To be honest, I'd much rather have Java on the Amiga - mainly 'cos I program in Java. That would let you use stand alone apps as well as web-based apps.

But, of course, I'd still want my basic tools running natively. What's the point i going to the effort and expense of getting an Amiga just to run ASP apps that you can run just as easily on a cheap linux box?
