Title: Evaluating interest in Cloudspace via Bitcoins Post by: cschmitz on May 11, 2011, 11:50:23 AM Hi,
i was wondering if people would be interested in Cloudspace for BTC. We are currently evaluating if we should add BTC as payment option to our Sync/Backup/Cloudspace Software with a pricing pegged to mtgox exchange rates, so assuming a rate of 6 it would be about 15 BTC for the Software including 5 licenses and 50GB Cloudspace. I appreciate your feedback. c Title: Re: Evaluating interest in Cloudspace via Bitcoins Post by: graingert on May 11, 2011, 02:52:23 PM can you put a link to the offer as I can't find it

How is distributed, reliable computing a gimmick?

How is distributed, reliable computing a gimmick? Lots of disadvantages and very little advantage. I'll take hardware that I have control over, data storage that I have control over, faster speeds and response time, and no monthly fees for using it.

Cloudspace as in "storage space in a computing cloud", not as in a product name.
