I'm really not seeing most organizations moving to the cloud. It only makes sense economically for the smallest companies/organisations that can't afford maintenance costs. Most bigger ones won't risk the loss of their core data and a lot can't go to the cloud for various reasons like legality, speed and redundancy.

Take a look at the customers featured at reinvent. Computing as "utility" is the future, and the future is arriving fast.
