    Haven't used Amazon EC2 in ages, but always interesting to see what new Amazon AWS EC2 products are on offer http://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/low-cost-burstable-ec2-instances/

    Hi George,

    I tried to spin a T2 instance but it looks like the Cent OS images on Amazon are not T2 supported as they are not HVM. Do you have any workaround for this ?

    nice - looks like they're after those LEB (low end boxes) folks. Although bandwidth is still too high to even consider such !
