Dec 17, 2014 at 0:09 comment added stack1 @fixer1234 - haha ! No. I am now using linux. I don't feel like paying for Windows for just this, even at $5-10 per month.
Nov 30, 2014 at 8:19 comment added fixer1234 So there actually is a free version of Windows? Does that mean pigs fly?
Nov 30, 2014 at 8:17 comment added stack1 Pricing info - azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/virtual-machines I chose a crappy VM with low specs - "General purpose compute: Standard tier", A1 plan, 1core,1.75 GB,70 GB,$0.09/hr(~$67/mo). I'll probably use it for 30hr which is $2.7. Not bad. For more power, I can take A2 plan for $5.4. OR take free linux. Not sure about the ease of development on linux.
Nov 30, 2014 at 8:12 comment added Crippledsmurf No problem. Happy to help. I'll have a look at the question you linked, but I don't use Ruby myself, so I may not be able to help you there
