ImageMicrosofts Cloud service Azure has broken down
And it was down for 12h.
The somewhat humbled Microsoft director in charge -Bill Laing, made some nice excuses here
The problem was identified pretty quick as a software error and guess what! :
They had forgotten about the 29th of February!

I repeat:
The biggest Software company in the world had forgotten about that extra day in February that occurs every 4th year!

MS informs that some customers in some regions may still be experiencing problems and they will get back with a more detailed analysis of what happened later.

I wonder where they will fit this in, in their Linux training course :think:
Manjaro 64bit on the main box -Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHz and nVidia Corporation GT200b [GeForce GTX 275] (rev a1. + Centos on the server - Arch on the laptop.
