I think its a great idea and I would certainly say that someone has to be 
first to do it, so why not? I mean one of the major things holding me back 
from deploying a lot more AxKit based sites is lack of inexpensive hosting. 
Its great if you have a client with lots of money, but a lot of my clients 
are smaller companies running storefronts. I would love to put them on AxKit 
based shopping cart, but they aren't going to pay an arm and a leg to have 
their own hosted servers, they need bulk hosting.

So, perhaps you can make some money this way :o). I suspect it will take a bit 
to build up a set of clients, but if you're patient and provide good 
service...
