No more excuses? Apart from having no clue how to actually do something on a window box, the fact there's red tape involved to get an account, and then more red tape to actually get time on the box(es), as they are configured for "single use" (which for someone coming from a Unix background sounds quite alien), the posting is quite silent on the process. Given that there's already a hurdle to even get started, I for one, am not jumping for the chance to test out my modules on Windows.

Don't get me wrong. I think Adam did a wonderful job. And I am sure lots of people will use the service. Just don't go that there "no more excuses" and that everyone ought to test their modules on Windows.
