AWS Workspaces

I would like to purchase Cloud PC as my second computer because it is inconvenient to use only the Dynabook N40. I decided to try so called AWS Workspaces, which I found on Preliminary Research.
I went to the AWS website and registered as a member. First, I entered my personal information such as name, address, and credit card information, but I still feel a little uncomfortable entering my credit card information online. However, there is no fee for membership registration, so you don’t have to worry about it (I believe :-). If you think of it as the same as the recent video services such as Netfilix and U-NEXT that require credit card information just to watch a trial video, you may feel less resistance. Incidentally, I have also tried a whole major video subscriptions for free, but I am not using any of them now (:-o).
After completing the membership registration in the same manner as video services, the next step is to apply for the service. From this point on, you need to pay attention to the fees that may be incurred depending on the contents of your application. However, it is unlikely to be a large amount of money, so there is no need to worry more than necessary (I hope :-).
When searching for services, there are many that even I, as a system engineer, cannot even imagine, and when I try to read the explanation, I suddenly jump to an another language page, so I feel that the hurdle is still high for those who are not in the IT field. I wish AWS would try harder in this area (l:-o).
Still, I managed to find Workspaces, and selected CPU, memory, storage size, and OS. First of all, it is OK for me the minimum amount of Linux, but I found that 1 CPU, 2G memory, and 50G of user volume were “free” , so I chose this. I heard that it would be free for at least 3 months, but the original fee is $34 for a fixed monthly fee or $10 + $0.25 for an hourly fee, so it is a fairly high fee for a subscription. Also, it seems that the price and free slots vary a lot depending on the region (where the cloud computer is located) and the time of year.
I’d like to get a laptop with a good performance for about $1000 as a home computer, and I’d like to get it to arround $30 per month for a subscription, so it seems a bit out of my price range. Well, it’s the first time and it looks like it’s free, at least for a while, so I’ll have a little fun with it for a moment.
