I'm synching my 101GB DropBox at 21mb/sec right now

…thanks to Amazon.

I’ve setup an instance using Amazon Workspaces to see how it performs as a secondary ‘backup’ computer that I can always access wherever I am. 

I’ve installed DropBox on the desktop instance and it’s whirring away nicely. 

I’ll write more shortly. For now I’m seriously impressed at the speed. It should fast, given my DropBox files are located on Amazon’s S3 storage service.
