CIO: The Case Against Cloud Computing

It seems that everyone's jumping on the bandwagon for cloud computing--but not just yet. CIO has come out with their case against this movement. According to CIO, they see that there are 5 impediments to cloud computing, and they are:

Current enterprise apps can't be migrated conveniently
Risk: Legal, regulatory, and business
Difficulty of managing cloud applications
Lack of SLA
Lack of cost advantage for cloud computing

What do you think? We're very interested to see what CIO has to say in their subsequent posts. We'd love to hear your thoughts.
