Adobe Illustrator for Free

Seems that Adobe is giving away CS2 (Creative Suite 2) which includes Illustrator. It is 10 years old, but would be good for those who don't want to buy the new version or who don't like Inkscape or GIMP.

Uh, oh.  Looks like it was too good to be true.

Slickdeals quotes a press release from Adobe.

Quote
"On behalf of Adobe Systems Incorporated …

You have heard wrong! Adobe is absolutely not providing free copies of CS2!

What is true is that Adobe is terminating the activation servers for CS2 and that for existing licensed users of CS2 who need to reinstall their software, copies of CS2 that don’t require activation but do require valid serial numbers are available. (Special serial numbers are provided on the page for each product download.) See <http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1114930>.
