Microsoft SA bullish on cloud and virtualisation offerings

What you talk about Apple, but dont mention Amazon or is the author's idea of cloud computing, cell phones with 3G?

I think cloud is more http://aws.amazon.com/ or http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/ or http://www.google.com/apps/intl/en/business/cloud.html

And Amazon is in SA: http://za.amazon.com/aboutsa.htm

Amazon.com Development Centre in Cape Town, South Africa is seeking a number of talented software engineers system engineers and team leads to help build and manage our Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2). EC2 forms part of Amazon Web Services (AWS), which provide developers with access to in-the-cloud infrastructure services based on Amazon's own back-end technology platform. The Cape Town based Development Center plays a key role in building and running the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2).

Amazon EC2 is a web service that provides resizable compute capacity in the cloud. It is designed to make web-scale computing easier for developers. Our simple web service interface allows developers to obtain and configure capacity with minimal friction. It provides them with complete control of their computing resources and lets them run on Amazon's proven computing environment. See ec2.amazonaws.com for more details.
