solidworks student edition

[adrenalina100]

I'm a graduate in mechanical engineering.
in 2004 I attended a design course with solidworks.
I wanted to practice for hobby the design with solidworks, I wondered if it was possible to get a student edition.
my finances do not allow me to buy the commercial version (the one in use at companies).
Can anyone recommend me? how can I get the student edition also having completed my studies?

As far as I know it is practically impossible, I think it is the biggest problem of solids and other cads ask you from 6 to 10000 euri without giving you the opportunity to grow independently. companies require young people with experience but how does a young man spend 10000 tricks just to learn a software that maybe a tomorrow will use? I have the similar problem where work have solidworks would make me comfortable at home but you can't, now I'm getting stupid to convince the company to buy and install sw on a portable workstation definitely losing in machine performance. . .

I do not understand how they make a product that costs thousands of euros and make it crakkabile in 3 minutes in its full version!! I think they tacitly solve the problem so you dump it at home, and you train as much as you want, then in the company you buy. autocad has the same codes and the same type of [Bleep] for years, and I think it owes its fortune to its widespread diffusion not only due to the characteristics of the product, but also to the fact that everyone knows how to use it because it can download almost as if it were opensource! !

they found that there is no non-bleep*able sofware and prefer to invest in other anti-fraud systems.
for example solid every time the pc connects to the internet sends all the data on which you worked including ip address and mail of the computer that installed it. the only alternative is to install the soft pirate on a ps that will never connect to definitely expensive intrenet to play at home. here a discussion on the topic http://www.cad3d.it/forum1/threads/49882-software-pirata-ricatto-di-denuncia

ok that there is no curable software, but no that I want 3 minutes!!! They could have done it more difficult to cure. not to be pretentious, but I remain firmly of my opinion.
