Hey all. So just in case for our members here for who are students and want/need an OS such as Windows 8 for their studies and do not want to pay obscene amounts of cash then Microsoft offer the Pro Edition of Windows 8.1 for $69.99 Windows 8.1 Pro Student - Microsoft Store - Free shipping. Free returns.. I just brought it as I needed another licence. Note that you will need to have verified that you are student in order to be eligible to take advantage of this.
