So the personal edition is right for me, or maybe the academic version. But it's not clear to me whether I can build and distribute this little application to my students using the Personal Edition. At the compare editions link (http://www.realsoftware.com/realstudio/compare.php) it would appear that the personal edition cannot "Deploy on Mac OS X, Windows, Linux." It would appear that the personal edition is just for programs on the PC where it's installed. Is that true?

But, the licensing scheme is about to change and I BELIEVE you will be entitled to develop and deploy on and to any platform with the entry type of paid license. There will be a new type of license too, free, with which you will be allowed to run your applications from the IDE without any other limitation. So, if your students can install the IDE, you could have them run your application at zero cost (not even your own license, I mean). Pixe _________________ Using RS2011r4.3 on Windows7.
