Default Re: student edition of corel X3

David,

Personally I wouldn't get the student version.

It is the same exact thing as the full retail version, except that you do not get the clip art collection, font collection, some of the manuals, and maybe a few other extras. The core program is the same.

The biggest thing is that you also do not get tech support and you do not qualify for future upgrades. That means if you want X4 later you will have to pay the full price again.

If you look around, you can get X3 Full Retail version for about $200, but you have to be careful and read all the fine print of the ads. Most of the people selling the student version try to do their best to make you think you are buying the full retail version.
