It is??

I'm still trying to figure out the price structure for EC2. I mean, do 
they bill you for how many hours an instance runs for? Or just how many 
hours of CPU time it uses? If you get a 4-CPU instance, do they bill you 
4x that?

On top of that, how much CPU time does each call to Apache actually use? 
I also need to know how many hits I get in a year to compute how much a 
year will cost me. Only them will I be in a position to figure out if 
it's actually any cheaper.

Currently I'm wondering if EC2 would be any cheaper/faster for running 
POV-Ray. But I suspect the answer is going to be "no"...
