Where are you located? In the US, 3DS costs $2,995 or something like that (@
$3K). If the software was legally obtained, and includes the docs, hardware
lock, and you get a transfer of ownership (through an Adesk Multimedia dealer),
then it's 100% "legal". If you're in Europe, I know some countries' dealers
charge obscene amounts of money to register a used copy of 3DS (Sweden =
$1500), so it's not even worth it.
Anyhow, once you're a registered owner of any version of 3ds, you can upgrade
to the latest version. In the US it's $495 for upgrade to R3.
As far as technical support, there is no technical support other than this
forum, and your authorized Adesk Multimedia dealer.
