Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation is generally cross-platform, but there are minor instances of Windows bias. For example, in the VM selector section, the recommendation 'Use at least B2 for Windows machines' is given, but no equivalent guidance is provided for Linux machines. In the disk sizing section, Windows is mentioned specifically, while Linux is not. However, Linux pricing links and VM creation guides are referenced alongside Windows, and most recommendations are generic.
Recommendations
- Where specific guidance is given for Windows (e.g., 'Use at least B2 for Windows machines'), provide equivalent recommendations for Linux, or clarify if no such minimum applies.
- Ensure disk sizing and performance recommendations are equally explicit for Linux workloads.
- Review all examples and recommendations to ensure Linux is mentioned wherever Windows is, unless the guidance is genuinely Windows-specific.
- Consider adding a brief note clarifying when recommendations are OS-specific and when they are general.
