By that time, I'm quite sure there would be another solution that could replace SharePoint, and the cycle would start again. We can quibble about the numbers, but you get the point. Plus, the numbers don't reflect that the SaaS solution is likely to improve and innovate faster than the licensed software by a significant amount.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://faves.com/users/mohit/dot/133321929565"&gt;Comment at Faves&lt;/a&gt; | &lt;a href="http://faves.com/Out.ashx?u=http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/is_saas_cheaper_than_licensed.php&amp;amp;d=133321929565&amp;amp;t=saas,technology,cloud,software,hosted&amp;amp;ls=rss"&gt;View original page&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://faves.com/users/mohit/dot/133321929565</link><guid isPermaLink="false">9.133321929565</guid><pubDate>Sat, 22 Nov 2008 01:52:09 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>mohit</dc:creator><dc:subject>saas,technology,cloud,software,hosted</dc:subject><media:content url="http://i.faves.com/01/74/27ec/6471f07e/c0603e6ba500ce52e2_5.jpg" type="image/jpeg" width="125" height="125" /><media:thumbnail url="http://i.faves.com/01/74/27ec/6471f07e/c0603e6ba500ce52e2_1.jpg" width="30" height="30" /></item><item><title>ASPシステムとレンタルサーバーの株式会社ロジックリンク</title><description>&lt;img src="http://i.faves.com/01/27/33c6/4541a4b0/f157005fe9c22bbf24_5.jpg" /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Quoted: 株式会社ロジックリンクはレンタルサーバー　アスカサーバーサービス、SNS ASPのご提供、セカンドライフのアクセス解析などセカンドライフのツール開発を行っております。&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://faves.com/users/oke/dot/114014762041"&gt;Comment at Faves&lt;/a&gt; | &lt;a href="http://faves.com/Out.ashx?u=http://www.logiclink.ne.jp/&amp;amp;d=114014762041&amp;amp;t=logiclink,asp,tools,saas&amp;amp;ls=rss"&gt;View original page&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://faves.com/users/oke/dot/114014762041</link><guid isPermaLink="false">31107.114014762041</guid><pubDate>Sat, 12 Apr 2008 14:46:02 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>oke</dc:creator><dc:subject>logiclink,asp,tools,saas</dc:subject><media:content url="http://i.faves.com/01/27/33c6/4541a4b0/f157005fe9c22bbf24_5.jpg" type="image/jpeg" width="125" height="52" /><media:thumbnail url="http://i.faves.com/01/27/33c6/4541a4b0/f157005fe9c22bbf24_1.jpg" width="30" height="12" /></item><item><title>SAP Is The Latest Convert To Software-Plus-Services Vision - Yahoo!
