Need a SharePoint 2013 environment?

Came across a great find that should help the SharePoint 2013 learning process greatly - a site where you can get a test environment for developing your proof of concept, just get familiar with SharePoint 2013, or test ideas.  Check it out for yourself:  http://www.sharepointpower.com/Pages/Default.aspx

I signed up and had an account and environment a few hours later.  Looking forward to great learning.
