Backward compatibility - Inventor

For those of you that saw Steve's post regarding saving AutoCAD 2010 files back 2007; let's look at this same issue for Inventor. (Yes, Steve I am a copycat) For those of you taking CD250 (Engineering Graphics II) please note that Inventor is not able to open newer files than the version you are working in AND is not able to save back to a previous version. What does this mean to you? Right now at school we are using Inventor 2008, from the Autodesk Student Portal you can download Inventor 2008, 2009, and 2010. If you download and install 2009 or 2010 at home, create work, and bring it to school it will not work. So, if you are in CD250, you will want to install Inventor 2008 for the meantime.
