If you are going to use Linux cloud computing services because you like to use this operating system yourself, you should know that there is one drawback. Most other computers do not run Linux. They run either Windows or the latest Mac OS. This may be all right if your files are compatible with these systems. If they are not, however, you will not be able to access the cloud from all other machines.
