Azure in a box?

On reading some articles, you might have thought that Microsoft would never release Azure "in a box". However, Steve Ballmer seems to be coming around to the idea:

"...it will be many years before many government organizations will grow comfortable with the notion of their data or citizen data living outside of the jurisdiction ... [for example] this company is not likely to build part of our public cloud in Slovenian [sic] anytime soon. So, somebody should be able to implement a Windows Azure cloud in that country."
