Ja syy löytyy tässä:
"According to Foley’s sources, Microsoft will launch a Community Technology Preview (CTP) test-build of the persistent VM capability in the spring of 2012. Microsoft itself has been close-mouthed about support for persistent VMs and supporting Linux on it in particular.
So why is Microsoft, ever so quietly and reluctantly doing this? Because its customers are demanding Linux support. Oh the irony! "

> M$ joutui nöyrtymään Linuxin edessä (Azure) <
...koska pilvipalvelusta maksavat asiakkaat haluaa myös Linux-jakeluja. Jos eivät saa niin vaihtavat muihin pilvipalveluihin, joissa tuki jo on...

But, just because users want Linux doesn’t mean that Microsoft will make it easy for them to get it. Instead, Linux users will need to provide their own Linux VM images. At this time, Azure only supports Virtual Hard Disk (VHD) images for its VMs. The new persistent VM support will be available as a Community Technology Preview (CTP) test-build in spring 2012.
If something goes wrong with Linux on Azure, I’m sure Microsoft will put the blame and support burden on the companies running Linux. That will be a mistake.
Microsoft’s business customers are speaking, and they want Linux. If Microsoft doesn’t deliver the goods, Amazon, Red Hat, and VMware, to name three of its cloud rivals, are already happy to fully support Linux users on the cloud.
