| 147678 | 2003-05-26 22:10:00 | Well with the .NET Studio 2003 that I picked up yesterday. The agreement that the polytech gave me was to say that I could install it on ONE computer and that I could use it for educational purposes (eg. no selling the software I make). Once I leave the polytech I can still use it provided that I keep to those rules. |

| 147679 | 2003-05-26 23:09:00 | Ok, Susan, hoist with my own petard.... friendliness then. Ive been in NZ too long and caught the spelling disease. :) ( BTW, in 'English' english, if at school, even 'til 18 years old then you were a pupil, you only became a student in tertiary education and in particular at university. In NZ english common usage probably changed pupil to student at sometime as it sounded more grown up.) Thanks for the 1 grand comment, experiencing wartime rationing and restrictions bred a certain frugality which never leaves one. |

| 147681 | 2003-05-26 23:53:00 | Well, IMHO - Its a marketing idea... Being a pupil at high-school, teens' are easily influenced, and in todays day and age we're an open-source society :p Due to this fact, they decide to punish us for our freedom by not giving us discounts that they really dont have to in the first place! *This is all just one great big joke!* Really though, I have no idea. DSE are good... But looking at QMB, their pricing is similar! Cheers Chill. |

I do I get to pay full price? CyberChuck |

| 147685 | 2003-05-27 10:17:00 | So an Academic version or whatever is no different to the real version? | mejobloggs (264) | ||
| 147686 | 2003-05-27 11:04:00 | > So an Academic version or whatever is no different to > the real version? No difference whatever. Only the terms of use. Also there is the "students and teachers" version of Office, which does not require ID. Again its the terms of use, read it carefully. |
