Ugh. All my data stored on Google's servers? Absolutely not. I deal with a LOT of data on a daily basis. Shifting around 100GB in an evening is not a big deal. Doing this over my local gigabit network is painful and slow enough, doing it on a network drive hosted at Google would be unacceptable.
Right now, for the general user, the major bottleneck of their computing experience is their data storage. Hard drives are terribly slow, even 10,000RPM Raptor drives in RAID-0 have a hard time keeping up with any sort of significant file operations. We're not going to solve that problem by sticking all of our data on a server somewhere on the other side of a slow, unrealiable link.
