    Hi,
    Does anyone know how i can get a free evaluation copy of 2k3, i had a copy with my ms press book, but it has now expired. Is it acceptable to download the MS trial of 2k3 from website, even though it is for study? I guess technically they wouldn't know what i used it for, but want to do it properly?

    Thanks Q,
    i have taken a look at this already.
    I guess my question is can this be used for training purposes? or is it only for people who are trialing the software with the intention to possibly buy?

    Nope - should be generic so I wouldn't worry. The only limitation is any time period on the software.

    Well obviously ignoring the use for business purposes etc etc.

    So long as you're using for home single person use then it should be fine. If you're unsure then read the terms and conditions on the page I previously quoted.
