The vendor sells the same machine twice: the Linux twin at the identical 6 core, 16 GB, 100 GB shape is USD 11.00 a month, so the Windows layer is USD 5.00 by implication. That 5.00 is arithmetic on two printed vendor prices, not a printed licence line, and it is the cheapest Windows layer found anywhere in the sweep: it sits beside Virtarix at USD 16.00 and Kimsufi at USD 34.00. The 4 GB plan is USD 4.00 and the 8 GB plan is USD 8.00, so the ladder is USD 1 per GB of RAM and the Windows product line is priced on top of it. A buyer who needs a licence in writing should ask before ordering, because the 5.00 is a price difference and not a statement of what it buys.","extras":{"shape":{"vcpu":6,"ram_gib":16,"disk_gib":100},"billing_model":"monthly","term":"none","monthly_usd":16,"setup_fee_usd":0,"windows_licence":"not stated","linux_twin_usd":11,"linux_twin_url":"https://billing.linveo.com/order/config/index/intel-kvm-vps/?group_id=8&pricing_id=51","windows_layer_usd":5,"windows_layer_basis":"arithmetic, 16.00 minus 11.00 on two printed vendor prices at the same shape; not a printed licence line","ipv4_included":true,"port_mbps":10000,"traffic":"8000 GB/month","locations":["Ohio","Texas"],"cart_url":"https://billing.linveo.com/order/main/packages/windows-kvm-vps"}},"claims":[{"path":"$.extras.monthly_usd","kind":"price","num":16,"unit":null,"per":"month","currency":"USD","usd":16,"fx_date":null,"parse":"ok"},{"path":"$.free_tier.stated","kind":"free-quota","num":16,"unit":"GB","per":null,"currency":null,"usd":null,"fx_date":null,"parse":"ok"},{"path":"$.limits[0].value","kind":"limit:volume-quota","num":8000,"unit":"GB","per":"month","currency":null,"usd":null,"fx_date":null,"parse":"ok"},{"path":"$.limits[1].value","kind":"limit:per-ip-shaping","num":null,"unit":null,"per":null,"currency":null,"usd":null,"fx_date":null,"parse":"unparsed"}],"unknown":[["$.per_object_cap.stated","not-applicable"]],"history":[],"drift":[{"kind":"duplicate-disagrees","subject":"compute/linveo","other":"compute/linveo-windows","field":"verdict","a":"paid-only","b":"qualifies-with-caveat","detail":null},{"kind":"duplicate-disagrees","subject":"compute/linveo","other":"compute/linveo-windows","field":"identity_kind","a":"email","b":"card","detail":null}]}
