A plugin is just a set of files, right? why wouldn't you be able to delete it later?

I wouldn't mind an invite if someone has one to spare. Email is my username at gmail.

I work for a large non-IT company in the midwest. People with the ability to translate between business process teams and development teams are always in demand. Also, although it seems to be looked down on by the hacker community, SAP/ABAP skills are good if you don't mind the enterprise environment.

This was my first thought as well - what you get out of it depends on what you put into it. Sure there's kids that treat it as high school part 2, but in my experience there's plenty of that at 4-year schools as well.

I got into my junior college's honors program, which meant free tuition for 2 years. In addition I participated in a local Fortune 100 company's student trainee program working 20 hours a week getting professional experience. It was a great jump-start to my college and professional career.

Even without free tuition, it seems like a no-brainer to me. Junior college professors can tell which students are there to learn. I had great relationships and learned a lot from both my junior college and university professors. To me the university atmosphere/experience isn't worth the extra cost.

I wonder if this question was triggered by the http://www.34ideas.com/ site that was posted here a couple days ago. I wouldn't pay to browse ideas. I might pay to use an idea but I'm not sure how, if multiple people are browsing ideas, you only let the person that "bought" it use it.
