    Question Msdn

    Ok. One of the guys around here that I know used to work for a major networking company in the area, until they lost a major account and he was let go. He still had the account name and password for their MSDN subscription and offered to give it to me. Should I use it? Is it morally wrong for me to use this? I work for the military, and a lot of this stuff is available to me anyway...any insight would be great.

    I don't think anyone here should try to "justify" it for you. If you're asking, you probably have some doubts as to the morality of it. Wouldn't want it biting you in the *** later and you thinking the only reason you did it was because the Windrivers community said it was alright.

    That is a very leading question. Of course it isn’t a moral issue if you don’t want it to be. Do you ever speed and think twice about it?

    I certainly wouldn't pay him any money for it. And, as you stated, you have access to most of the stuff anyway, so why bother.

    But why not?

    I do have access to most of it, however the development software and things like that I don't... I have been wanting to write some proggies to improve efficiency for the unit (maybe the Marine Corps if they work good enough), but all I had was VB4 Working Model - no compiler and only two forms per project. I will probably use it and continue to use it until I can't access it anymore...just wondering if anyone out there sees anything extremely wrong...

    Just get the VB 6 working model, its basically full VB minus the ability to create standalone EXE and installs.
