zachj said:What kind of deals do colleges give? I know you can get Windows and Office and stuff for all of like 5 to 15 bucks. Is that deal across the line, or does that deal only exist with certain products? I mean, if I had a Mac and I wanted FinalCutPro, do they offer that kind of discount for that as well? I'll be in college soon, so I was just wondering what to expect. I love cheap. Didn't mean to jack anybody's thread, here, but it does appear that the problem was solved.

for me, i get microsoft products for $5 (select products of course) and visual studio.net is $10... we also have a huge discount on macromedia products... but it all depends on your school... any way, it's a great deal
