Which is why I save documents to my computer too.
But wouldn't it be just as simple for online applications to save the document locally (on your own hard drive) as a default? A copy would be saved online as an option - say if you wanted to share the document or access it from a different computer.
A checkbox at login would tell the system if you are working from your own computer (and want to save locally) or want to save only to your online account.
Using this logic, it should also be doable to designate one online file space as your "master space" that you can save all of your information to. Instead of hop-skipping across the internet to open your applications, you could assign the applications that will open files within your single on-line folder just like you can do on your computer.
When that occurs, MS Office will be officially dead.
