Amazon EC2 is out of beta!

So Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud is finally out of beta, meaning anybody can sign up for it. Now, you can hire a computer on the net for 10cents an hour. Want 10000 machines computing for you? It'll cost you only $1000 or INR 50,000.

You don't have to worry about where these machines will live, how they're setup, who pays the electricity bills -- nothing.

Does this mean that I now win the NetFlixPrize? Maybe...
