It would be really classy if MS forgave that debt, especially considering the service is a public benefit.

- alkonaut 5y agoI have a monthly azure credit of $150 and some reduced pricing simply by having a ms developer subscription. I'm guessing Microsoft MVP's (in general, and Azure MVPs perhaps in particular) have extremely generous azure credits so hopefully he isn't on the line for the full amount here.
