3Ds Max Design 2011 for your own computer!

If you would like to install Max, we are using 3Ds Max Design 2011 in the labs at the moment, and as a student, you can get a free version with a 13month license from the Autodesk website. All you need to do is register with the site using your student email (eg. z1234567@student.unsw.edu.au). This applies to pretty much all Autodesk products.
