1. I believe dark edit can be found on the darkbasic screen under showcase>applications
2.I have never programed in liberty basic
3.If you are like me then you are new to it and I am having a hard time programing I have no shotage of Ideas but I dont know how to code those ideas so they are useless for me.
4.I think it is legal because they are supplying you with the source code. I believe those examples are to show you how to do things and also allow you to change and experiment with them.
5.I think it is because comps are expensive and parents really didnt grow up with them so they dont understand them like the new generation My parents have chosen to not except them it is called traditianlism I had to do about two months of convincing to get them to buy my alienware.
6. Dont know about that one.

well I answered them all but I dont know if it will help any

Alienware area 51/radeon 9800 pro 256mb/sound blaster audigy 2/5.1 surround sound speakers.

@Major Payn: #5: comps arent really that expensive now....unless you want a top-of-the-line computer, i could get a computer from dell for ~$350 2.6gHz, 256megs ram, prolly a crap video, but...

4: yes, you can edit them...you just cant claim that they're yours or reliece them anywhere

6. DarkBASIC is primarily for creating games, and games don't need to use printers - only applications.

Am I the only one here who's really confused?

but if you must print then there is a print DLL out there somewhere, I just don`t know where though, there was a link on RGT, but thats gone now (rgt as well as the link ) (I`m starting to sound like agent Moulder, "the DLL, it`s out there")
