RE: [flexcoders] Best $$$ Price on Flex? (The Scoop)
Actually, it turns out David is correct, exactly as
stated.
From the Education Purchasing FAQ at http://www.adobe.com/education/purchasing/faq.html:
"Good news! You can use Adobe Education software (any
title!) to produce commercial/professional paid-for work when you leave school,
or even while you are in school. In this regard, Adobe does not limit how
student software is used. So students can use it to learn and to make
money!
(Of course, students must agree to the
terms of the End User Licensing Agreement which appears during installation
just as every software customer must do.)"
Regarding my other questionabout limitations on the educational
products, the same FAQ says:
"The
Education and retail versions are virtually identical we do not modify the
software itself. To differentiate the product offering between education and
retail, we may remove some clip art, some fonts, or other non-application
resources. So really, the only difference is price. Student customers can be
assured that this as an opportunity to get the full version without paying the
full price."
Just to
be thorough, the FAQ goes on to say that:
"You are
able to continue to use your Education version serial number when you leave
school to upgrade to future commercially priced versions if you want to, rather
than having to buy the next full version. So you save money now while you are
a student, and also after you graduate!"
In
short, this is an extremely cool program Adobe has. I salute them for it! If the
goal really is to get a million folks using Flex, then the pricing for the
educational Flex version will go a long way toward bringing new Flex advocates
into the fold. I'm pretty darn impressed.
Thanks
to all of you for your comments, but especially to Greg Hamer, who initially
broached the idea of academic licenses...

Hello,
I have not reviewed the EULA recently and so others could
comment in more detail, but Shannon is correct below.
There are no functional limits on the product, however
you must have a valid education ID to purchase and use it in that
context. You can purchase an educational license and then use it
commercially.

The traditional limitations are that you must be in
education, and you must only use it for educational purposes. I.E. if you
want to release an application that you got paid to build, you need to buy
the full version.

Are there any limitations on academic licenses, like
limited functionality or ugly splash screens? Just so happens I'm taking
