    1. go to a popular site, select a popular torrent, read the comments - if no1 mentions viruses, then you're good to go. nobody cares that you torrent, cops won't show up at your door.

    1. Actually it costs about $100, even with student discount.

    2. If you make use of the EPP discount using your @uwaterloo.ca email then it is in fact $11.

      However, the offer is targeted to uwaterloo employees and not students so if you're going to do something unethical and take that discount you might as well torrent it...

  8. I was told by the I.T. department of Feds (Which is housed in that funny little Floor 1.5 office space in the SLC) that they provide office for free to students, along with a couple of other softwares

  10. OpenOffice is a free program and it's a MUCH better alternative to Word. Not only does it allow you to use it just like Word, it also functions like Excel, Powerpoint, and much more. You can also save your files as your standard Microsoft program files. It's available for both Mac and Windows so operating system capabilities should not be a problem. :)
