Remove bad advice on module loading
AzureRM is a roll-up module that contaisn 50+ dependent modules. There is *no need* to load this module in the customer's session. PowerShell will discover the modules as cmdlets are used. Adding this step takes an additional minute and a half that si totally unnecessary, and loads 50 modules into memory. Please remove this as a recommended step.
