      I want a VM up there, just to say I'm hosting something in space.

        No kidding. And it is Xen, too, which is awesome.

          THIS IS AWESOME!

          Will there be a handy interface like on AWS so that we can spin up VMs as needed? Even if expensive this will be the most popular thing ever.

          Imagine web hosting from space! Now we know where MegaUpload is headed next!

                        That makes it so much better.

                          How long, I wonder, until hosting plan details are available. Ridiculously expensive, I am sure, but interesting for sure.

                            This is big news. Some will find it very good and cool, while others will be seriously freaked out by it. I'm curious to see what the actual payload will be for $2M per launch.

                              Combine this with SpaceX new ISP in space, our entire Internet might be floating above us soon!
