Don't forget to also look into Amazon's 'Reserved Instance' pricing as that is a much more cost effective solution when running instances, especially 24/7.

Steve, I have to agree with where you are coming from. When you compare physical to virtual, it does seem very expensive to run.

But I also understand the benefits that Virtual gives you as well, and I am with you in that I am not sure that for small and I refer to you as small in the space of it all, could justify the cost of Cloud Computing.
