The spla thing is weird I tried to ask CloudCone about it and they said I need my own license or buy from them for $40/month im like lol no my whole budget is $15/yr for this 1gb box so I found a key on a forum and it activated but is it legal? Definitely not sure
Spla is service provider license agreement you rent monthly from microsoft or hoster retail is buy once own forever but oem dies with motherboard this thread has too many words already
Methinks the distinction between SPLA and retail doth confound even the wise, for whence cometh the license upon this virtual machine where no motherboard perisheth yet the hoster claimeth provider status, wherefore the end user knoweth not whether he renteth or owneth, and so the winding road of Microsoft's cunning grammar leadeth us back to that ancient truth known even unto our grandfathers' grandfathers, that Linux requireth no such parchment nor seal nor monthly tribute to Redmond's coffers, and I have spoken overlong yet the kernel beckoneth
340MB idle sounds optimistic. What did you strip exactly?
Hetzner.com? I wouldn't pipe that to anything I own.
