Hi Aaron,
I don't have a specific point to make, but just throw out the topic for
discussion, mostly in response to your first comment in the social media thread
and in Chris Maxcer's blog. It appears that www.idevcloud.com is operating
under IBM's academic licensing, which is not what commercial developers need.
Neither would it work for those wanting to offer cloud-based applications. IBM
doesn't appear to be very interested in competing against Amazon EC2 and
similar. So maybe someone else would like to get into the business. It just
might help to discuss the business model, and what it might take. I don't have
experience at partitioning servers, so I could learn something too.

Hi Nathan,
I am not sure what you are getting at, but I was not implying that I
am interested in hosting a leasable IBM i in the cloud at my house. I
would rather pay somebody else to do that. What are you trying to
say?
