We released a new widget for our product that runs directly within a company's website, and allows their prospective customers to request a fully functional server image directly from the site.<p>It's a great sales tool, especially for complex applications that normally require large install files, database setup, complex configuration etc. and are therefore difficult to share with a prospective customer (think IBM or Oracle products).<p>To show our widget I took out 2 minutes to create a basic demo. Feel free to request a machine on this test site so you get an idea of exactly what we do:
