Microsoft bCentral

I guess this place is a bit cynical to ask this question, but it's something I'd really be interested in seeing a reaction to, particularly from the Microsoft fans. Start by having a quick look around here, and come back when you're done.

Now, that is essentially a microcosm of what Microsoft .NET is going to be all about. It's going to be services offered over the Internet, where the data and usually the applications are stored on a central resource. Ok, it's more complex than that, but as I said, it's a microcosm of it, an early example.

Now take a look at this page, and come back again when you're done. Got the gist? Ok, here's the question:

Would you honestly use that service to manage your finances?

Seriously now, I'm asking an honest question, and I'm looking for honest answers. I'm not going to talk it down or talk it up right now, at the moment I'm just looking for a response.
