Jack,
It would be a fun project to move some already running largish distributed
ABM from a standard Linux cluster over to EC2.
If only my company would pay me to play just on the fun projects...

Not only for problems; but witho
Penguin Computing is trying to distinguish themselves in this way with their
POD (Penguin On Demand, cute) service.

They seem expensive compared to Amazon, though.

Thanks, Jack. I suspect that for distributed message passing ABM
simulations the Amazon EC is not a good solution.
