Hey, Microsoft is sponsoring their 2005 annual contest, “You Can Make a Difference and is giving out Visual Studio .NET for FREE to anyone who applies!! Also, 10 winners will receive a $2500 scholarship, $1500 production budget and $1000 in technology for their school. All you have to do is create a software project that would help out a local charity, such as Lions Club, Red Cross. Etc.
