I don’t think I’ve ever had my instances taken out from under me when I set the max price to the same amount as a normal instance.

That said, when we exceed capacity we cannot boot any more instances, that’s definitely true.

I thought this was true, but I have had spot instances go away even when going above reserved instance pricing.
