ThePowerUp Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 Hey there,So I just started University, and my parents were nice enough to replace my Toshiba Sattelite that died with an iMac. I'm loving it, but I do miss certain Windows-exclusive programs. I've looked into it, and I'm seriously considering purchasing Windows and running Bootcamp so that I have the option to run the Windows programs as well.Now in Canada at least, I've noticed that Windows is bloody expensive! I'm not saying it's worth it, but many people have told me that being a student, there's many ways for me to get Windows for cheaper then the retail price. Especially with me being in university now, I have to watch my funds.Any suggestion on where I can go, whether digital or retail, to find the cheapest version of Windows 7? People keep telling me that students such as myself save money but I'm not sure where to start.Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-pops- Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 Try Amazon for "Student Edition" software.In the UK there is a company called Software for Students - there may well be something similar where you are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandalph Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Just show your University ID at any Microsoft Stiore and they will give you a hefty discount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
