Hi, I'm trying to figure out which version of Visual Studio .NET to buy. Ebay has some listings for the academic version, and it's MUCH cheaper than the regular version. What are the drawbacks? Also, what about the 2002 version vs 2003 version, profession vs regular. I've looked at the feature list but I'm looking for a bottom line idea about what to get from someone who knows.

Is there a restriction with the academic version of VS.NET 2003 in the way of distributing an EXE? Or, what is the difference in this version and the commercial versions with respect to distribution? Is there some mechanism in place that prevents distribution? Thanks, Brett

From what I've read, it looks like the Academic Version of Visual Studio 2003 has all the features of 2003 Professional. Has anyone found that the Academic version does not have the features Professional has, such as Full Menus, Crystal Reports Reporting, and Deployment Tools?
