Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation demonstrates mild Windows bias. In the 'Add a VM image' section, the only example for preparing a VHD is for Windows ('Prepare a generalized image from a Windows VHD'), with no equivalent Linux VHD preparation guidance or link. Additionally, password complexity requirements link to a Windows VM FAQ, not a Linux equivalent. While the OS type selection and connection instructions do mention both Windows and Linux, the step-by-step examples and references favor Windows first or exclusively.
Recommendations
  • Add a parallel example or link for preparing a generalized Linux VHD image, similar to the Windows VHD preparation link.
  • Include password complexity requirements or references for Linux VMs, if applicable.
  • Ensure that examples and references for both Windows and Linux are presented together or in parallel, rather than Windows-first.
  • Review all referenced links and ensure Linux parity in guidance and troubleshooting.
  • Where screenshots or UI instructions differ for Linux VMs, provide Linux-specific visuals or notes.
