hihihihi writes: Many media sites are reporting the launch of Nivio, the "World's first Windows-based (!!!) online desktop". 5 gigabytes of storage, and all the standard desktop features such as file back-up, virus and spam protection, OpenOffice suite, the Outlook Express, Internet-Explorer/Mozilla-Firefox browser, Acrobat 8 reader, iTunes and Winamp players, Yahoo Messenger and also Foxit Reader.
The Nivio service is hosted on replicated highly-available servers in data centres in Switzerland and New Delhi — Nivio is a subsidiary of a Swiss company, SMX iNet Global Services, and is the brainchild of SMX founder and former Imperial College London student Sachin Duggal. Google News have further reports.
After the free-use period that might extend to year-end, Nivio will be offered on a monthly subscription of Rs.399 — with a 50 per cent discount.
