I'm an Apache committer, and because of that Microsoft gives me a free MSDN subscription (which includes Azure credits).
I use Azure to run assorted Ubuntu machines. They run well, the interface is nice and I have no complaints. I also have a few EC2 VMs (and some DigitalCloud VMs and some Rackspace VMs and in the past have had HP Cloud VMs and Linode VMs).
Amazon is good, too. But I signed up for EC2 before the free micro-tier came in, so I got nothing from them.
So what I want to know is why I should feel scared, running Ubuntu on Azure?
And what is wrong with giving Microsoft credit for offering good programs like Bizspark? (And read that first sentence again, BTW. That's a real thing, and no other company does that)
