Are you familiar with Ben Heck (Ben Heckendorn)? He does nifty projects like stuff an Xbox 360 into a laptop type enclosure, or make a C64 laptop. He also builds custom one-handed game controllers. One of the episodes of the Ben Heck show details how to make them.<br>

He's a fun guy. He was talking about building a super beer can smasher then, I guess he has that completed on one of his shows too.<br>
<br>Just a warning if you decide to watch one of his movie projects: you will never get that time back. ;)<br><br>-dc<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Dec 15, 2010 at 6:46 PM, Don Ellis <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:don.ellis@gmail.com">don.ellis@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Adobe products? The student discount can be very attractive (or at<br>
least it used to be -- haven't checked recently). Or maybe there's a<br>
rehab connection with a community college and the hospital?<br>
<br>
I think the student path may be one of the best ways to get software<br>
for a "reasonable" price.<br>
