Don't think the principal notices the benefits of having education emails (i.e. this)

What :S

Here I had one technology course available called "Exploring Technologies". For 75 minutes all you did was see who could type a document faster.

Surprisingly I didn't take that course:P.

Which bit you saying "What" to? MSDNAA is that MSDN Academic Alliance which can be found at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/academic/default.aspx and due to whatever course he picked in college he has access to it.

If there's anything I've missed while I've been at home, it's the fast downloads...

I never disagreed? I just said the choice maybe there like it was with the Microsoft Office 07 Ultimate edition they did with the Ultimate Steal not so long ago. And I think it is right in saying that a large download may not be to everyones cup of tea :P

And you so just shown off your fast speeds, evil :P

I have an ac.uk email from manchester so I could get the £30 thing, but I don't think I could get the MSDNAA access.

Also, we're limited to 10Mbps download and 2Mbps upload, so not massively fast download speeds. However, the latency is epically low so web browsing feels really fast.

GOD I WISH?! I get a max of 2Mbps download and 2MBps upload. its sooo sloooow
