Yes, I considered using similar text, but I'm not a big fan of it for
this case (or in general, really). Linguistically it doesn't really
excite me, and I don't think its message has enough focus. Maybe I'll
try to come up with something original and try to propose that for web
site, as well as the cloud marketplace. (Don't hold your breath waiting
for this, though!)
