I thought the UKFSN opportunity looked pretty good,but with increasing 
commoditization of the hosting/ISP markets I wonder if these skills (in 
the UK) will become a lost art.

Yesterday I was reading some blog posting about a couple of "dudes in a 
dorm with $0" out to create the flickr.com or youtube business, but the 
infrastructure is built entirely on Amazons S3 Web Services.
