Team 932 made them available only for Team 1026 as a quick fix for a corrupted library problem they were having. They should not have been posted publicly.

I see... well good thing i asked. I currently don't have a copy of labview because my mentor wasnt sure how many computers we we would need to use the licences on in school. And right now NYC is on spring break so i wont be able to get one until wednesday. do u think it would help me to download the trial version from the NI website until then?

There was no set limit for the number of computers each FRC team can install the provided LabVIEW software on.

It depends on what you plan to use LabVIEW for. If you want to program FRC robots, support for that isn't available from anywhere except the LabVIEW disks from the FRC Kit of Parts. If you just want to get used to the LabVIEW programming environment, the trial download would be fine. (Just watch out for possible problems if you try to install the FRC version later -- it might be best to completely uninstall the trial first rather than installing over it.)
