A Core with a 30GB size isn't a Core.

There are problems for install some applications. For example, a message of "Couldn't load XPCOM" appears when try to execute Firefox.

Sensation of not reliability for productions environments.

-sconfig (the server core console menu) doesn't run automatically as it normally do on core.
-Connecting with RDP is rather unstable...the console on host behave strange(?)
-Regional keyb config doesn't work, I had to hack the registry to get my danish keyb. to work.
-Cannot install the the "Active Directory Domain Services", error "Cannot Connect to CIM server" (I need this to have full remote administration capabilities)
-Was hoping the Core version required a smaller disk image. 30GB is minimum :-(

In general it behave very strange I don't trust it for production. I'll try out the Core VM on Google cloud (would never touch Azure).
