if you have a .edu email address you can get the pro version free
might be worth it just for the awesome discounts and free software (maya? 3ds? office?), there are ways to find just an .edu email without being a student
i've looked around but didn't see any easy way to get an .edu email. a few years ago there were several small colleges giving them out, but they closed it i think. i've still got my old school email, but i know people who'd be interested in getting one. i was looking into buying my own .edu domain just for the emails, but it looks like it's not that simple. any suggestions?
