Files are saved and data kept inside your virtual web environment and you can access it from just about anywhere.

While not much more than a demo at this point, the concept and potential behind YouOS is clear. As long as you can access a browser, you could theoretically access your YouOS machine. With many companies focusing on creating web-based applications, even Microsoft, the near future may see projects like this become commonplace. Take a look
