Is it possible to rent a virtual instance of Windows/XP/Vista/7 in the cloud on pay as you go basis?
- by Janusz
I am a software developer and I need to test my software on different OS all the time. I am using free VPC images from IE6 compat kit from Microsoft but they have only limited options of Windows Versions (Win XP SP3 and some restricted version of Vista).
I need a service where I could rent a Virtual OS in the cloud and connect via Remote Dektop. Use for couple of hours and then discard all the stuff I have been doing there.
I tried using Amazon S3 but they only have Windows Server 2003
Anyone knows of such a service that would offer different XP/Vista/7 versions ?
