Flash costs like $300!!! I'm sure your parents will be mad at you, unless you're really really rich!

No. Around  $700. I got a discount, though, so I got it for $250.

Actually, it's $800. But with a student discount it's only about $170-$180. I think they just lowered the price with CS5 if you have a student discount.

Lol - I have a VERY old version of Flash... I think Macromedia Flash 8.

But I can't install it... I haven't a CD drive on my netbook D:

No, to buy CS5 new it's $699.

Actually it works both ways.

And no, Flash is not preinstalled. On any laptops, I think.

Not pre-installed by Acer.

By parents, maybe. I did get a 98 average after all.

Nick, I DO NOT TORRENT. >C

I'm not spoiled. .-. Maybe I should delete the topic, if you believe that.
  Just because you didn't get a Hetalia thingy, doesn't mean chap is a imp.

Re: I suspect my parents have something to do with this

Make sure its not a trial first. If your laptop is used then it may be a legit version.

And at least ask them about it. Flash is an expensive piece of software made for professionals whose entire job revolves around it which is why is costs so much. I don't know why your parents would buy it just so you can toy with it.
