Sites like facebook and google are niche. Because there aren't many with that kind of traffic.

they are not niche on the internet, thats just fact, services like akamai would likely be interested.

Every MMO known to man then? Sure certain parts of their tasks would run better with improved SC performance. But as a whole the amount of information sources they are computing through. These would be allow them to be a scalable, increase response time, and minimize queue's and crash's, specially during title or expansion launches.

These aren't single task servers or VM hosts that you would throw up in any business. These are the answer for super high web traffic and exactly what companies have been looking for for cloud computing.

Actually most MMOs require some strong ST at least for their main timing code. Although, the ones that are setup more like portal/nodes could probably utilize these dense clusters.
