If 'cloud' means remote data storage, then of course Dana Mitchell is
quite right. If it is viewed as a vehicle for marketing services,

that use these data, then perhaps he is not.

Thanks for the clarification. That makes sense to me. The hardware is not
masking off the unused bits. I totally misread the first paragraph. I
also wonder if an AGR is faster than a simple AG. Unless the CPU has both
64 and 32 bit ALUs, it would make sense that the native 64 bit would be
faster.
