For some reason there is no student discount on the regular cs4 version. So it's 599 for the regular or 299 for extended with the discount ... haha go figure? And if you are in a higher level education (i.e. college) you can get it for only $199 if i remember correctly. I bet many people pass over these great offers without even knowing it. Great though, thanks, I think I'll go for cs4 then :-)
