Only for those who want to rent Rybka Cluster.
How much money are you willing to spend per Year (or at least the 1st year) on renting Rybka Cluster?

It might be good to break the first category down.   There might be plenty of people who woud spend say up to 300 Euros a year but no more.... how far into the 1000 Euros people would spend might be of great relevance.

But I have voted anyway.   And I would add that I will only spend on it if I can buy in packages at a rate close to 0.25 Euro per core hour.

> Rental Protocol Under the Rybka Cluster Rental Program, anyone can purchase time on the Rybka Cluster in continuous chunks of at least 48 hours
> Two standard, well-tested Rybka Cluster configurations are available starting February 1, 2011:
> A Rybka Cluster 40 consists of 40 physical cores and can be rented for 238 Euro per day,..The minimum continuous Rybka Cluster 40 rental time is 5 days.
> A Rybka Cluster 100 consists of 100 physical cores and can be rented for 595 Euro per day,.. The minimum continuous Rybka Cluster 100 rental time is 2 days.


Well, I thought that according to the above, the minimum would be quite high to start with

You might be right but I, for instance, would pay a maximum of around 350 Euros per year.   Beyond that it would not make economic sense for me.  So if the minimum I could spend is 1000 Euro I will be not be using the service.

I think your survey is a really good idea.  I saw this an opportunity for people to show how much they would spend so that the Rybka team can desgin their pricing to attract a lot of customers, including the people who will spend a lot less than 1000 Euros in a year, of which I guess there will be many.

1000 EU per year still to higth for some part of the people who will rent cluster, is better to put 200, 500 options.

Do you really think that anyone is willing to spend 1000 Euro or more in one year for rentalRybka? :cool:
I would have asked: 20 Euro, 50 Euro, 100 Euro 200 Euro.

And: we all should hear and read more about the features, strenth etc. of rentalRybka.
Then you can expect plannings
