After reading you article I kicked it around a bit and looked at what I do in our office for virtualization and examined what it takes to create a new virtual appliance for the organization. It only takes a couple of hours for most virtual systems from install to apt-get of the right packages to configuration. I don't see JumpBox saving me a lot of time nor providing me any value with there support. Besides if I want virtual appliances there are many FREE community supported ones for many virtualization systems. For example http://www.vmware.com/appliances/index.html has a very extensive list of free (and not so free albeit) appliances for download. I guess I feel this company is taking the work of the community, wrapping into a package which I just don't see the value in and profiting from all the work of others. It sticks in my craw...
