Sorry to be a pedant - but is it "legal" to install the "free" version - as its only free for personal use???

I was given a cutout from some magazine or other stating that education establishments could apply for a free version of the full product. However I can't find anything on the google site and have had no replies to any emails I have sent.

The member of staff can't remember where he got the info from either.

Anyone else seen or heard about this?

Searching EduGeek can be a help

you need a license to install this if it's not personal use. Installing in a school is not personal use !

NASA worldwind is similar to google earth, but intended for educational use.

Worldwind is OSS

Google have said it's free for education. See this thread:

Need the MSI here too if anyone has it.

**StewartKnight** · 2nd February 2006, 10:48 AM

I dont NEED the msi. But if anyone does have it......

**TimH** · 12th February 2006, 08:49 PM

Why use an msi? I'm pretty sure I just dumped a copy on a server and set shortcuts to point to it. (After checking legaility of using it in school.)

I have the MSI created. PM me with your email address and I will send.

TimH that means your users default cache folder is in the profile. Do you really want 400mb of cache stored in people profiles

**Geoff** · 13th February 2006, 11:16 AM

To be fair, you can alter the cache folder location with a reg hack.

**ZeroHour** · 13th February 2006, 11:23 AM

Yeh, Just that my MSI has the cache fixed in it. Was just letting him know of the possible issues with his methord.
