Re: Why Windriver?

FIRST does not issue or manage the licenses. The licenses are held and manages by the IP owner. The licenses for WindRiver and Labview are for the full calendar year. Labview is a year plus a few days. A broad suite of professional grade software products is provided to FIRST students. The licenses are valid for a full year and in some cases three years.

Students can and do use these products the full calendar year without issue. These products are not limited but are fully capable and well beyond the capacity of most students and mentors knowledge and capability.

If you would take the time to install the products and actually read the license agreement then you will be much better prepared to make your point, whatever your point is.

If you will take the time to research the issue you will find a ton of professional grade titles available free or at a very reduced cost, for both high school AND college students. What is available today is stunning compared to 30 or even 10 years ago. You have an opportunity here to learn things that most of the population of the world has never had in history. Like Greg said, take advantage of these opportunities and learn all that you can about the products and about product design.

Asking questions is ok. Doing your research before asking the question is much better and will allow you to ask much more productive questions. It's much easier to ask a bold question if you have thoroughly researched your topic, otherwise it makes one look a little silly.
