Though a program called the Microsoft Academic Alliance,
Microsoft has generously made certain of its software available free to
students enrolled in CSE courses. Information about the program
may be found at
http://www.cs.washington.edu/lab/sw/MSDNAA/ms-sw.html
As
it is currently set up, you should receive information and a password
automatically by
e-mail during the third or fourth week of the quarter. The
program is
not administered by the staff of CSE373. If you have
problems or
questions, please seek information from the page above.
