into which you put your own coffee of choice. Or go all the way back and get a decent pot when you're in an environment where multiple cups of coffee are served simultaneously anyway. Serving a lot of coffee? You can have more than one coffee maker and a wait staff who know exactly what is needed for coffee on premises. You can have exactly what you need without the restaurant/coffeehouse markup.

But then, people always seem to be willing to pay way more for something outsourced than for something in-house, so the cloud has a business model in this. I wonder what the cloud services companies will do when they get bored and want to buy servings from someone else to resell?
