Practical Azure #15: Windows Azure Virtual Machines (Part 2)

We looked at Windows Azure Virtual Machines in the last episode from the perspective of creating a VM from a base operating system image, installing software (the Mongoose HTTP server) and configuring some settings, such as the firewall to enable HTTP traffic.

In this follow-on episode, I take that same example a step further, showing how to create an image from the VMs created last time, so that you can reuse it as a template for additional VM instances.
