My brother's college website gives most microsoft products away free....

 

You only get 1 product key though and have to have a student account! He just gives the link to me... :smileyvery-happy:


They used to charge money when I was at college. It was dirt cheap like, but still, they charged for it :<

Re: Windows 8 Release Preview

College does not mean university in Ireland, University means University. Its exactly the same as the UK.

 

A university is a collection of colleges/schools/institutes, A college is just that a small educational institute offering degrees. When you go to a University you attend one of their colleges, for example School of Law & Government at Dublin City University. When you go to a college, youre in their only "school".

 

Also, if you download windows from an educational website when youre not supposed to, its called piracy. Educational licences can not be given away or sold to other parties, What college is your brother in so it can be reported to Microsoft Ireland?
