No, that computer was a 1U rack-mount. The machine I was playing with in Casaburi’s class was just a Linux desktop.

EC2 is the virtualized server service that Amazon provides. It definitely takes some getting used to, but it’s not so bad. I haven’t heard of SimpleHelix.

Yo alex, is that the same computer you built back in the Casaburi days?

yeah EC2 is the Amazon servers? That is some hardcore stuff right there. I am thinking of just using something like SimpleHelix and perhaps S3 for mass storage.

Keep the faith brother. There are plenty of other goodies on the internets. Just search for waffles.
