>Cloud is not for everyone or every company. We looked at it and decided it wasn't cost effective for our needs, but we did move our corporate servers off premises to a data center.

That is different. I know a few other places who did/are doing that, but that's a server farm where you can own the hardware (if you want), you don't get just a time-space-share in some anonymous computing space, you get something tangible, and you can even go there and take your machine elsewhere if you want. IOW, you have the control while you have outsourced the maintenance and physical location. I don't see how you can have that level of control over your slice of the cloud.
