What's the old adage about what they don't know won't hurt them? Ignorance is bliss.

That's downright illegal I think. Adobe sells you a license but does not give you a CD in case of reformat? Specifically, what they are doing is charging you for the lease or rental of the software. I don't know how much CS2/3 is full retail, but for $400+ I would imagine you can get the full suite online.

That's utterly and grossly ridiculous of your "institution of higher learning" to commit such act.

I am going to go research whether or not this kind of act is illegal or not... it MAY borderline legality... If they won't give students cds I'm going to ghost the hard drive when all the programs are installed.... but would that be possible and if so... which program should I use to do that?
