I was wondering why there was no mention of CPU power! - Mitch (Mr Norris), I'm doing a comparison for cloud computing (virtual servers). - Michael thanks for the comment.

It's good to see users trying to do the apples to oranges (lizards) comparison of pricing, especially since GoGrid is on only provider to do RAM-based pricing (versus CPU). We chose the RAM-based billing model simply because it is a lot simpler to understand (you know how much RAM you have deployed...it's harder to determine the amount of CPU cycles you might use...) We do have a wiki page on the GoGrid site that does some brief comparisons between EC2 & GoGrid: http://wiki.gogrid.com/wiki/index.php/Billing_Model#Server.2FInstance_Price_Comparison There is also some details on the Core allotments there. We also have some Technical FAQs that talk about Core bursting available: http://wiki.gogrid.com/wiki/index.php/Frequently_Asked_Questions#Technical_Specifications Please be sure to check back with GoGrid over the next month or so as we will have some interesting new options available.
