Hi All,

I'm looking for a cheap way to start playing with RAC in my own time.  I'd like 
to run a virtual environment but my current laptop doesn't really have the 
power.

I know you can't run RAC between multiple Amazon EC2 instances, but what if you 
rent a single big EC2 instance and then put VMware or Virtual Box on top of 
that?  Is that supported/possible?  Or any better ideas for the tightfisted?  
This is going to be a really light-usage play area.

Many thanks!
Charlotte
