Hi,

Tried looking for used copies on eBay? I don't think there were free download versions until PE 5.0, so you'd be looking for past boxed versions.
How are you liking PE? Do you know it is very simple to re-install onto it's own partition? If you do that, you'll have nearly the same product as 5.0 Pro.
You can also upgrade the downloaded version (5.0 PE) to 5.03. Check at BeBits.com for the upgrade.
Best Wishes, Bob
