When I was at college I worked for a little studio in a building full of little studios that were pretty much all people who had graduated at various points from the same art college.
There was an inverse heirarchy in the building. The newest people, the most recently graduated, were the ones with the strongest connections to the college, and so the ones who were more able to obtain copies of all the college's software.
The entire building was churning out design work using the same copies of Quark Xpress, Freehand and Photoshop that had been purchased by the college for the college Mac room.
This was pre-internet registration so there was no way anyone could know. Frankly I was pissed off when I finally realised I was going to have to fork out for legitimate copies. That was last year, around October time.
