Version: Autodesk Maya Personal Learning Edition 8.5
Pros: I have heard the software is fantastic but, alas I can not use it. This is a great free fine to those who qualify.
Cons: When you get to the web site and fill out the form you are then sent to a page with your key number. Then you read the requirements for the program towork...XP Professional, three button mouse and the list goes on. I only have XP Home.

Cons: takes a long time to load up

Version: Autodesk Maya Personal Learning Edition 8.5
Pros: Its been stopped , started using Blender to learn as a hobby, don't expect I'll ever Need Maya. Unless you're a professional animator ... Blender ought to float your boat !
Cons: Student edition (Maya) would leave 2 ton watermarks, Maya , Autodesk, these folks are really proud of their products ( $ 3K_usd for WHAT !?! , rather donate 3K to blender.org , but that's just me)

Version: Autodesk Maya Personal Learning Edition 8.5
"Personal Learning Edition Is no longer available."
Pros: You can only download the 30 day trial.
Cons: I have previously downloaded and installed this software. However they are no longer making this version available.
Summary: 30 days is better than nothing. But for those that don't have the time to get good in month it might be a waste of time to download and install.
