Some of these devices — cloud clients — rely on cloud computing for all or a majority of their applications so as to be essentially useless without it. ... Many cloud applications do not require specific software on the client and instead use a web browser to interact with the cloud application. ... Some cloud applications, however, support specific client software dedicated to these applications (e.g., virtual desktop clients and most email clients). Some legacy applications (line of business applications that until now have been prevalent in thin client computing) are delivered via a screen-sharing technology." [Cloud computing.
