in MCTS / MCITP on Windows 2008 General
I have just started studying for MCSA 2008 certification and as I am travelling around the country so much I am looking to set up my test lab using Windows Azure. I have read a lot people referencing this setup but was wondering if anyone has any experience of doing this or knew of any good resources. I have had a look around MSDN and Technet but cannot find much information.

    You're better off upgrading your RAM and HD in your laptop and carrying your lab with you. Windows 8 includes Hyper-V 3 so you won't even need to dual boot with a server OS. Azure isn't free, and a few months of Azure fees would buy you a new laptop. Azure also does not support a desktop OS which would restrict the types of labs you could run.
