Amazons EC2 and Run BASIC

Ive been trying to figure out how to provide hosting for Run BASIC users. Someone had asked, so I suggested Amazons EC2 system. I had read about it somewhere, and then it was recommended to me while I was being interviewed here.

The idea that Ive been toying with is to charge a reasonable monthly fee like $15 for a Run BASIC user account on a VPS on EC2. A single instance of a VPS costs about $75 a month, and additional instances are created and removed as load changes.

So far things arent looking really encouraging. Jerry Muelver has been looking into this matter, and so far it looks like a difficult matter to set up. Documentation is not easy to follow, and it just seems like a real hair puller. Check it out Jerrys story here.
