I can't find this in my cloud console. The info pages are all pushing the "Contact a sales rep" button. It's not clear whether all the pricing info is included yet.

They lists one possible node at $10/hour ($7200/mo) before contract length discounts:

> CPU: 2.6 GHz (3.9 GHz Turbo) x2, 36 cores/72 hyperthreads

> Memory: 768 GB

> Data: 19.2 TB NVMe

> Cache: 3.2 TB NVMe

I could already import VMDK's to run in GCE. Obviously this is not intended for that, but rather to provide vSphere/vCenter/ESXi in the cloud. Where I've used these in the past (for relatively low-tech IIoT work), I'd often "pull" the VM's off the on-prem server and run 4-12 VM's on my laptop to simulate and configure machines for chemical plants. If I was in the office, I could RDP into the machines running on the on-prem server and would be able to enjoy a high performing desktop environment. Obviously as I was in the same building as the vSphere/ESXi host, latency was very low.

I've had significant issues with latency in the past trying to use RDP/VNC/etc from Houston to any of GCP's datacenters and wonder if that would affect quality of service for this offering. Will a lot of users be remoting into these VM's to use boxes running Windows/GUI/etc? Or is this a very different use case?
