In my experience, it doesn't seem to matter what the name of the VM product you order is, because what gets delivered is only 50:50 what you actually wanted and specified in the first place. Sometimes you're extra lucky[1] and get an additional product delivered in the mix to provision what you wanted... something that isn't on the records anywhere, and that's just great when it goes down.
