Summary
The documentation page exhibits subtle Windows bias, most notably in the section 'Review estimated costs in the Azure portal', where the only example given is for a Windows VM. The screenshot and description specifically reference 'Windows VM' without mentioning Linux VMs or providing a parallel example. While the pricing FAQ links to both Linux and Windows VM pages, the primary example and imagery center on Windows. No PowerShell or Windows-specific tools are mentioned, but the lack of Linux VM examples or parity in illustrations suggests a 'windows_first' and 'missing_linux_example' bias.
Recommendations
- Include parallel examples and screenshots for Linux VMs when discussing cost estimation in the Azure portal.
- When referencing VM pricing or features, mention both Windows and Linux options equally, or use neutral language (e.g., 'When you choose the size of your VM...').
- Ensure that illustrations and examples throughout the documentation alternate between Windows and Linux scenarios, or show both side-by-side.
- Explicitly state that the guidance applies to both Windows and Linux VMs where relevant.
