Some strange pricing options if you choose monthly lol
LTS Operating Systems templates only?
What's to stop you from doing an upgrade to the latest version if you're using Debian or Ubuntu?

There’s nothing stopping me from upgrading.

But it forces you to do that, it's a huge update process and limits you only to those options.

True... but that raises the question: How often are you going to switch from Debian to CentOS ?

It's that you can't do Fedora, that's the bigger issue.

That's why I didn't go beyond signing up which was the only way I could see what they offered.

It's not the end of the world, but it definitely doesn't bode well for continuing support.

True. But combined with their "month-to-month" pricing of $80 instead of only slightly higher than the annual amount, that tends to set my spidey senses tingling.

Yeah, something is seriously weird there.

Hey Aaron,
Thanks for sending this over.
We will be offering more operating systems in the future, by offering LTS OSes now we can ensure the quality of our service.
We’ve also been in business for almost 7 years, the annual pricing is lower since we’re able to pass on significant savings with the annual commitment.

Strasmore, Inc.How does offering LTS improve quality? Sure lowers it for me. And after seven years they've never gotten around to offering a current OS?
