Tastes like Redmond.

I don't want a fuss or to put a bullet in your face...
...but unless you give me what I want there will be *goshdarn* murders.

Hmmm, it's not pitched that way but what you say makes sense.
edit: LOL, it is so. Makes a lot more sense now. So does gleek's comment.
Have you or anyone you know had experience with EC2? Looks like a bit of a pipe dream to me. Does everything have to be 100% J2EE compliant? Are there any other possibilities? Do you know of a non-trivial, functioning install?
J2EE compliant? I was under the impression it was just a virtual server and not java-centric. http://searchcorp.biz/ama...trepreneurs-and-startups/(I love the idea of just paying for puny usage, but if one of my sites gets dugg or slashdotted, it can handle the load, and I'll pay for the rampup as needed) Been researching further now and looks like the following environments are supported: PHP C# Java Perl VB.NET Interesting. Now that my head's on straight about this I'm going to have a good look. I have a pet project I've been wanting to do for almost ten years. This might be a perfect fit. Cool. Let me know if you need any beta testers. EC2 seems to be very popular on some of the startup sites I frequent. Everyone seems to be short on cash for bigtime hosting, but want something in place to scale when the time comes. I've read about some teams with no office/servers at all, they just jump between coffee shops and use virtual dev and prod EC2 servers. |

I wish ObjC would make it beyond Next/Apple. Was an Ada, C and C+ programmer in the Air Force. Was a Smalltalk programmer for about three years just out of the Air Force. ObjC brings together the best of all those while leaving the worst of all those behind.

That would be about how I'd like to operate. Although I wouldn't work from coffee shops I'd remain 100% anonymous. Of course, if you want to deploy a no support / no phone number / no email addy product you pretty much have to give it away and maybe someday get rich off advertising and/or buy-out.  |

Yeah, pretty much. Although I never had to actually work under these conditions I did become familiar with these yokes in tech school.  Nothing like learning the term "floor sort" the hard way.  |
