> I ave created a public snapshot for use on Amazon EC2 using 64 bit Windows.
> If you want to try R on multiple cores ,remote desktop you can use this
> snapshot to create copies.
>
> It has R, GUIs for beginners (like RCommander , Deducer- Alas rattle failed
> due to RGtk+) and a lot of R analytical packages.
>
> It also has Chrome for browsing, Adobe Reader for reading help, and a
> dataset WDI (in public downloads folder) for testing sample data.
>
> It also has the academic version of Revolution R Enterprise installed on
> it- so you can see the new XDF format in Revoscaler package for bigger
> datasets or just play/explore it.
>
> The cost of using this would be 3 cents per hour payable to Amazon (micro
> instance). Detailed instructions on how to use a snapshot or create one of
> your own are on my website at
