Title: Mwahaha, free software...legally.
Post by: Silverhawk79 on August 27, 2008, 02:52:11 PM
Or at least for me. :3
As part of the Computer Science program here at my college, we get automatically signed up for the MSDNAA, or the MicroSoft Download Network Academic Alliance (or something like that). Sooo...I can download a big list of really expensive software. FOR FREE! :D
I already downloaded Microsoft Visual Studio Professional Edition and the MSDN Library for MVS, which combined are over $1000. I can download Vista Business, XP Pro...I LOVE COLLEGE. =3
Um, to give this a point...
Well, I don't know how to give this a point.

Not free. You pay for the college courses, right?

You can use Daemon Tools...but I'm pretty sure if the network guys caught me uploading that, even after the license agreement...I'll be in deep poop. D;

I got this huge adobe package at a massive discount because of college. It's so complicated I can't wait to get good at it!
(Includes Illustrator, Photoshop *most recent addition*, and Flash).
