Linux in the cloud: will your company use it?

Novell has announced that it will make its SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) versions 10 and 11 available by the hour on Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). Users and ISVs can pay by the hour for access to SLES and for technical support, from Novell or its partners. The offering, part of Novell's SUSE Cloud Program, is designed to enable companies to run their workloads where they make the most business sense, on common Linux versions, whether on premise-based physical and virtual servers or in the cloud.So will your company try or use Novell's new cloud-based Linux? If so, for what? If not, why not?
