[thelist] Student/teach software > upgrades

[fstorr]

Hi all

First off, a belated happy new year to the list.

I'm buying a Mac and need to get on it my current PC software 
(Macromedia, Adobe, MS Office), which is going to cost a fortune. 
Luckily I'm in education and qualify for student/teacher editions of 
their packages, but have been told that there is no upgrade path to 
those deals.  So, if for instance I buy Adobe Creative Studio as a 
student and then want to upgrade to whatever the next version of that 
is, I won't be able to; I'll have to buy an entire new, full price, suite.

Does anyone know if that's correct for Macromedia, Adobe and MS Office? 
  I've searched the relevant sites but upgrade path information doesn't 
seem to exist.

Sorry if this is OT

Regards

F
