Even with the downloaded version, why would you have to store it on a computer?
UK students can also get it for £30 if they have an ac.uk email address starting from today. http://www.microsoft.com/uk/windows/...r/default.aspx
Think I will buy one today
i just called and talked to a rep and he said its true, the full version can be bought for $30 as long as you have a valid .edu email address. going to do this as soon as my credit card is cleared of current charges.
thanks a bunch OP, i was originally going to get the upgrade version, but now will definitely get the full.
To my understanding, the download is only stored for a certain time frame. With digital river it is stored online for 30 days. Once downloaded I would have to burn a copy and keep that handy. Otherwise I would store it on an external.
Looking back I guess it would be ok to only have available as download but there is something about having a microsoft issued hardcopy that gives me a little more sense of security. I am a create of habit.
It only cost me an extra 8 bucks with shipping and tax.
Jacen do you know how many copies they will let you purchase through this offer? Because I know the online offer only let you buy one copy.
