Standard Version versus Academic Version: Does anyone know if there is a difference between the two?

The academic version is the same product. The standard version comes with the serial number in the box whereas you have to prove your academic eligibility to receive the serial number for the academic version. For a college student, this entails identifying your school and uploading a picture of your student ID. For a high school student, you have to submit a letter of correspondence on letterhead paper and get it signed by a staff member. Upon receiving your materials, Nuance will issue your serial number or reject your eligibility claim within two business days. I am a college student who got the academic version. The verification process was pretty hassle-free and was worth the $30 I saved. And in case you are wondering, yes, this message was written with Dragon Dictate.

there is the typical trial version of office if i am not wrong, but to get the full version you have to buy a key, pretty standard for new machines. I reccomend uninstalling the trial and installing any office you have handy (or buy) i did it with office 2007 and no problems so far.

I do not think there is a difference, except the unit without the "BA" designation is sold by a different seller and priced higher than Amazon. I have the unit and would highly recommend it! I purchased mine from Amazon. I own two - one for home one for office. Hope this was helpful!

This is for Academic use and has watermarks on print outs but the functionality is the same as the commercial version

I don't see any extra content in the download version, but I encourage you to investigate further. Barring that, this one certainly looks like the better value.

Hello,I remember choosing between the two as well. What I found out is it was the same (tray load). Its lower price is due to the fact that it doesn't come with the Multimedia Suite, which I didn't want anyway.

When I bought this, I received the standard edition, and it says STANDARD at the bottom.

I don't think it matters, it updates to current programs setting (all my language installments have been changing/updating for years). I think it updates the lessons too, because when I check my status I find I have things I didn't due after an update.

As far as I can tell, the A+ is the newer version. My daughter received the other one last Christmas and we were able to do it online the same as the A+. Their website is studentpublishing.com if you want to check them out a little more.

depends on the product you buy (regular version, educator version, etc) The educator version was two PCs when I my wife bought it. I don't know about other versions.

The EULA seems to imply 3 computers in the same household/address for the Home and Student edition. Other editions have lower limits if I understand the EULA correctly.

Not to my knowledge. This is the only one showing on Amazon. My guess is the "standard version" has something to do with the game itself (which I haven't played).

No, this is just the regular versions which is great. I bought pro tools 11 student version.

I do not know the difference between gentle and standard; I use the standard version and it is perfect for me. Sorry that's all I can offer.

Yes it is on a CD. Don't know if it can be put over the other version. I did put it over 2010 student version.
