^i dont appreciate being called a software pirate, i dont even like open source.

yes i am, i work at IBM, and we do student recruitment at NCSU and likes in the area, and we give out free copies of VS2008 professional edition.
they do have a student licence, which means that you are free to use it as you like as long as you dont make money off of it.
and i think there is a clause saying that if you develop a new technology Microsoft may have a stake in it if you used their product.

Alright that's cool, I was curious where you'd be able to get copies but now I understand.

maybe i just don't understand your type of humor. and btw. if i share something i don't own and it has a licensees, then yes its pirating. and if you are referring to open source. i never inferred that it was pirating, just that i didn't believe in open source movement.
