Summary
The documentation page exhibits mild Windows bias, most notably in the example for estimating VM costs in the Azure portal, which specifically references a Windows VM and provides a screenshot of an 'A1 Windows VM.' There are no equivalent examples or screenshots for Linux VMs in this section. While links to both Linux and Windows VM pricing are provided in the auto-shutdown section, the primary example and visual focus remain on Windows. No PowerShell or Windows-only tools are mentioned, and most instructions are platform-neutral, but the choice of examples may subtly signal a Windows-centric approach.
Recommendations
- Provide parallel examples and screenshots for Linux VMs when demonstrating cost estimation in the Azure portal.
- Ensure that examples and visuals alternate between Windows and Linux resources, or use generic VM types where possible.
- Explicitly mention that all features and cost management tools apply equally to Linux and Windows VMs.
- Add a note clarifying that the Azure portal experience is identical for Linux VM cost estimation.
