> Do you think your pricing is sustainable?

I think you're kind of missing the point. Most non-professional artists (which there's a lot of!) won't need to come close to the break even point. When I was doing modeling and speed painting in school, I probably used about 80 render hours a year on our farm. I never "went" professional, but I can imagine that smaller shops probably aren't spending that much time doing deliverable renders. I bet a lot of small shops with a small farm under the desk are going to sign up to be providers for this as well.

Not to mention, you're talking about one GPU :) That's very slow. You really need to consider that for complex scenes, having twelve GPUs running for five minutes is way more convenient than one GPU running for an hour. Now, suddenly, that changes the math significantly - you're talking about buying 4x gpus (and the "sleds" required to run them - another $600 or so).
