1000$ Google Cloud Compute Starter Pack

https://cloud.google.com/developers/starterpack/

It takes 2-3 days until google enables your trial but it works really great.

edit:

Promo Codes:
1) nrc-org
2) gdg-in

Looks like a pretty good trial, but which promo code do you use? You provided 2 codes.

Using an 8 core MS Azure instance running Server 2008 R2. Works really well - I've got it for around 10 days free using their $200 free trial.

Best thing with Azure as far as I can tell is they automatically disable your account at the end of the trial period - they don't even try and bill you. Apparently they got a lot of flack in days past about that, so they've opted to default their trial to a $0 spending limit - so you'll never have to pay a penny if you don't want to.

They run Ubuntu 13.xx as well, but I've had compile errors with 13.04 and I love mstsc.

I reached the CPU limit of 24 per region at Google Compute Engine.

its for accredited companies only, they check it.

So everybody who has a company... works for a company... or knows somebody who works for a company...
Basically everybody who tries it.

I know already 6 people who got the $1000 and they do not have a company.

I got the Coyote Pool miner going with the $200 free at Dimension on the Ubuntu12 option. It is reporting 23 hpm. How fast will this cut into my $200?

Should I have multiple of these going to just get through it fairly quickly? I don't see anything about pricing and there is no report yet.

ETA: AWS coupon came pretty quick so that is up next after HP

I did the first of 4 large on HP before reading 16 small is better. Large is only getting 18hpm. The instructions were confusing because it says to put your public IP in putty but I had none and had to go add a "floating IP". Looks like they charge $0.01/hr for this only if you create one and don't assign it to a server.

Edit #2: My large server crept up to 19 hpm while after a while my small went from about 2.6-3.2 and average about 3. Large is better if this is true at 6x the rate for only 4x the cost. I guess I will test out medium later too.

you can use ssh from your first cloud server, that has the public IP

Thanks for so awesome information.

you can set a billing alert, set at 90$ so when you owe them 90$ you get a email and then you can terminate most and leave one running.

will the alarm work even though I'm using the instances for the last 30 hours and still shows 0 credits used?

I think every day your usage charges are updated or after a hour or two after you close your instances.

I think calculating manually would be better, try contacting amazon and asking about it. I'm not entirely sure sorry.
