Sun has released its much touted on-demand grid computing for $1 per CPU-hour at Network.com.

From the site:

Sun is changing the very nature of computing by delivering access to enterprise compute power over the Internet with its Sun Grid Computer Utility. Sun Grid provides an easy and affordable access to an enormous computing resource for the predictable and all-inclusive price of $1/CPU-hr. Sun Grid provides zero barriers to entry and exit. You can access the computing power you need, when you need it, with no hidden costs, without a long-term contractual obligation, and increase or decrease your usage as your demand requires. You only pay for what you use; Sun Grid is on your terms, not ours.

Now there should enough cheap CPU juice for the common public.
