So what about cloud? Is IBM using, or planning to, use this as a method of
attracting new interest to the platform? Are there third-parties offering
tools or access to cloud hosted environments for learning and
experimentation? Or is it more of the same - nothing freely available, one
must pay hundreds of dollars for tools or access in order to play around
with it?

Have you looked at pub400.com?

They offer free public access to a basic 7.4 system.

They also offer more robust plans for a fee.

Larry B & Pete M run
https://iinthecloud.com/idev-cloud/ that offers services for developers to
do private work.

I'm riding in the American Diabetes Association's Tour de Cure to raise
money for diabetes research, education, advocacy, and awareness. You can
make a tax-deductible donation to my ride by visiting

You can see where my donations come from by visiting my interactive
donation map ... https://mideml.diabetessucks.net/map (it's a geeky thing).

I may have diabetes, but diabetes doesn't have me!
