I got this from an IBM web site (http://ike.engr.washington.edu/news/promo.html). If anyone can match some prices with these products, please post them. ------------------------------------------------------------ IBM personal software academic editions are available last updated: 5/1/96 What are Academic Editions? They are IBM Personal Software Products which are available to students, faculty and staff of educational institutions at a lower price than their non-Academic Edition counterparts. What is the difference between the Academic Edition and the regular commercially available versions of these products? There is NO DIFFERENCE in the functionality of these products compared to their non-academically priced counterparts. They simply have a new part number and UPC code and a lower price. The Academic Edition sticker on the boxcover requires that the student/faculty/staff member show a qualifying id at the time of purchase. An individual distributor may offer a variety of promotional bundles or offers to your campus store, so you might find Warp or DOS at your campus store bundled with a book or promotional CD, etc. Which IBM products are available as an Academic Edition?
