You're not missing anything.:-) I was simply responding to someone who had
said that the academic versions cannot be updated by purchasing the update
product...I don't know that to be true. But I was pointing out that IF it is
true, it wouldn't be enough of a drawback to keep one from taking advantage
of the terrific savings on academic versions.

Hi B.D.
Am I missing something here? :-) I believe the Academic
versions are the same as the Commercial version. You just have to prove
that you are a educator or a college student. Some version place
restriction on using it commercially but I don't think any code is
different.

Of course there's also always the very valid question of whether you
NEED
the latest version, or whether the Academic version you purchased at a
discount will easily do what you need it to do until the time when you
are
too blind, arthritic, and maybe just plain 'stupid' to be able to use it
anymore. ;-)

- -- Hello folks!
Think before you buy the educational version of P-Shop and some
others.
The normal "Upgrade" will not work with them, in most cases, and you
then
have to purchase the whole enchilada again! It's OK if you stay in
academics
where you can do this on and on (the least they can do - our pay is
lousy!),
but if you drop out and go back into "the Real World" - You'll need the
whole new version. That is, if you can't find a starving academic who
will
buy it for you for a coffe and sandwich! ;-)
Cheers!
