Dreamweaver 8 for cheap?

[fw2004]

Hi all;
I am looking for a legit copy of Dreamweaver 8 for about $100 or less.
I have seen academic versions (which I believe are the same as the full product, but at a much lower cost) but one must provide credentials to get it. I am not currently enrolled in any college, so that might prove difficult.

All I want to do for now is learn the software, and see if I can get a job as a web developer (freelance I think).

I have found nothing at all in this respect. My 30 day trial has expired, and I hardly even got to use it.
I am not going to spend $300-$400 for the full product when I will probably never use it to make a real web page, or use only for personal site.

I would have no problem paying full price if I was going to use it for work where i get paid!

I couldn't find DreamWeaver on newegg.com, but you could get Microsoft Expression Web for $90 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16832116220. I had used the beta version of Expression, and it was pretty cool.

Sounds like Expression would be fine, but I really wanted to learn Dreamweaver, since it appears to be the pro's choice. I have already ordered "The Dreamweaver 8 Bible" which contains the tryout version on a CD. Perhaps I can install it on my other Windows partition, and just keep reformatting it every 30 days to keep the software running <g>

I suppose that if I am really serious about web development, I will enroll in a class, and then I should be able to get the academic discount.
