Yes, this is real and not really spam. So, I'm leaving it. But, I did move it into the Watercooler out of the General category.

No not spam. You don't have to be a full-time student either, I'm not. You just have to be registered with one of the institutions on the website. An Athens logon would help you as well. The files are downloaded as .iso or .exe.
