Programming question.

Does anyone know of a website that sells old programs? I would really like to try and learn some programming to help out with some things at work. I can't afford to go out and buy the newest programing software. I was hoping some place online would maybe sell used stuff like this. I took a class years ago with visual basic 4.0 so I have a real brief knowledge of it but I owuld be open to anything similar.
Or is there a place online that trial versions of something lie this could be downloaded? And I am not refering to pirated stuff.

Any ideas? Thanks

Yeah, i thought linux had a built in C compiler.

Are you a student? You can qualify for some hefty discounts.

then there's always the "w" word.

You can download windows version of VIM, my favorite editor, and then find the g++ compiler somewhere. It might take some time to get these to work under windows, but they will. In fact if I can remember my old CS instructors website he has them there.
 
Another way to get Academic Software, with out being a student is goto a trade show or computer fair. There is always some idiot selling Academic Software and not checking ID'S.

I worded that poorly. I thought it was obvious from the discussion that Vim is a Unix program. I was just saying that a port comes with Cygwin.
