Sonic Foundry needs to put me on their payroll....
That should give you some inkling of what I'm about to say.
Basically, you'll find a new set of tools and parameters with the full version. Better support for Direct X plug-ins, integration with Acid - plenty of bells and whistles like my new best friend, THE BATCH CONVERTER!
That's not to say *you need it* but if you'll appreciate that kind of editing power, it is by far worth every penny.
I've been using Sound Forge professionally for about 7 years. I still have yet to learn every possible function but its a desert island title for me - in otherwords, I wouldn't want to be without it.
If you qualify for student discounts, check this place out: http://www.journeyed.com
Sound Forge 5.0 $159.95
Acid Pro 3.0 $159.95
Vegas Video 3.0 $159.95
These are full versions - no restrictions.
I don't work there but I shop there a lot....

I just love it when stuff like that happens! Be sure to grab the updates from SF's web site - and if it's not on the CD... Grab BATCH CONVERTER (its my new best friend.)
oh wait... did you get the Calculator? That's gonna pay some dividends too right? (wink, wink, nudge nudge, say no more.)
