RapidStart experiment

As started planning out a new AX 2012 implementation, we wanted to give it a try on the RapidStart service , a free online tool offered by Microsoft to help configure and deploy Dynamics AX 2012. It's a new service, probably out there for several months. The whitepaper lays out all the great features and it looks like a great product that can be leveraged by any AX 2012 project. You can read more about the service from AX team blog.
Our experience with the RapidStart service wasn't pleasant. First it was a service registration issue. After we could log in and see the interface, we couldn't get the configuration completed in any of the ways described in the whitepaper. See screenshots below for the errors. We logged an support ticket with Microsoft and they confirmed the issues. Their support group is actively working on solutions. I'll give updates when I hear things back.
