Two completely different areas, for one reason. Microsoft will drag us kicking 
and screaming into the future - count on it.

No one does.  But, what alternative do you have right now?

6 months is a pretty long time.

I think the intent is for ITPros to use the 180 day evals for their own labs.

There’s also the virtual labs.  You no longer have to maintain special hardware.

Spinning up an Azure VM does not meet the requirement of MSDN software. I can’t 
test on my hardware, in my data center,  in my environment without MSDN or 
paying for software. Microsoft is going to push this Azure crap too hard and 
people are simply going to stop using MS software. People are heavily invested 
in the Microsoft skillset but other than the bodies running the systems there’s 
no other real dependency upon Microsoft. We could just as easily run on open 
source.

Not really, when you think about it.  TechNet was used more for downloading 
software than any of the other benefits.  You can spin-up a Windows Azure VM 
and test the same software now.  No reason to have it on-premise for testing.  
Plus, the other options they are offering as replacements are all free.

They are keeping MSDN, though (for a while), so you can subscribe to that if 
you want to download bits.

This is pretty terrible, TechNet yearly subscription was great.
