Hi Mike,

Have you seen this thread in the news group?

http://news.povray.org/povray.general/thread/%3Cweb.4fcd1a5e61bffe2de3f6250f0@news.povray.org%3E/

Here "cloud rendering" is not to be confused with POV-Ray's rendering of 
clouds. :-)

Folks have done it as you'll see in the thread. I have only a couple 
times started to investigate the possibility - always getting side 
tracked before trying. The Amazon web services spot prices look 
reasonably cheap to me, but they are variable.

Bill P.
