    If you have Microsoft Academic Alliance you can get all your stuff for free. Check with the school and see if you're a part of it. Most universities are in the program.

    Otherwise just get the free version

    It's definitely better than the free version, but not worth the cost.
    I really like an addon for it called visual assist (used it in a previous version, should be available for 2010 too though)... it's really expensive though too lol =\

    +1, MSAA is where it's at. I'd imagine most major universities are part of the program. There are a ton of things you can get through it. Do NOT pay for the full version.
