hmm I think you confuse things here....

there is XSI EXP, it's free for download for windows and linux. You can order also the tutorial kit which is 80$

then you have two different Educational (student & teachers) versions:

XSI Essentials and XSI Advanced. Advanced features also hair, compositor and softbody.

so, what are the tutorial kit for 80?
and some one have seen XSI Essentials and XSI Advanced?
i am thinking in them, but is a lot of money.
and what kind of tutorials are?
thankss

The learning kit comes with the EXP version of XSI which includes all the features of XSI Advance but you save to a EXP format and some fuctions like exporting and flipbook are not activated you also get a watermark on your rendered images. This bundle includes a 479 pg color tutorial guide which you can use to learn some of the features of XSI.

The educational versions of XSI (those you mentioned that are 479 and 749) will let you work with the full complete version of the program. note you will need to meet the qualifications of the student teacher /Educational facility.

i have the qualifications,
so the only diference, is that the one for 60-79 is the same that the 475, but the only thing is i have to work with xsi experince?
i only want to learn, so i dont see the point to get the full version for student, ?

[wmendez]

If you just want the learn the program then the EXP should do just fine.

[pelos]

should i order the one fot 69-80?
are videos, or just the pdf tutorial that comes in the softimage.com?
thanks

No Videos, just the book with the complete tutorials as the PDF files.

If your looking for a good video at a great price look into Bernard Lebel's
XSI Prodcution Solutions and Tips
http://www.3dtutorial.com/

There are also these

http://www.cineframe.com/fundamentals/index.htm
http://www.edharriss.com/tape/index.htm

while these tapes focus on certain aspects of XSI the tutorial book will cover a majority of the programs functions. Ed's site is also a haven for XSI tutorials and then you can always join XSI Base as well. If you check out our resource menu you will find more info on books, videos, etc.
