[clug-talk] Online (Linux) PC?

[Mark Carlson]

Just passing on an interesting advertisement I just saw for a Linux
based product... anybody seen something like this before?

http://acanac.ca/Webhosting.html

It's a VPS, but advertised as an "Online Personal Computer."  It runs
Linux, but is barely advertised as such (aside from screenshots.)
>From one of the FAQs:
"How secure will my Online PC VPS account be?

You access this service through SSH. A secure protocol. Since it's a VPS
you`re the only one who has root (Administrative Power) to the server. It
also runs on Linux. Linux is less vulnerable to Viruses and Spyware."

I've seen Linux based VPSs before, but nothing marketed like this!
And it's Canadian!
