Cloud computing officially enters pop culture

OK its official, Cloud Computing is just not cool anymore.  Nothing that goes too mainstream pop can be cool. Too commercial. Watching Monday Night Football tonight, I saw the IBM commercial for cloud computing.  Personally I think it is the kiss of death.

Does this signify critical mass or a fad that is on the way down?
