You mean the buzz words cloud computing and grid computing? I am 
doubtful that's going to last in its current form. Google's email system 
been having quite a few outages, to give an example. It's interesting to 
see this is somewhat of a step back to the good old mainframe "paradigm" 
;-) How soon do you think before the current buzzwords become 
yesterday's news?

You're still dealing with hardware and OSes. Except now you have no 
control of the hardware and when a company goes bust, or I don't know, 
decides to retire some services, you can say goodbye to your virtual setup.
