Currently I have a Primary 1 server Sitecore license which is hosted on a live server. my question is can I use this license to setup a copy of the site on my local machine or would this require an upgraded Sitecore license?
I would recommend asking your Sitecore sales rep for an official answer to this question. Unofficially, though, I think you're in the clear to use your license for a local development environment.

I’d like to find easy to setup Sitecore 9 demo website. Imagine this procedure:
Install Sitecore through Azure marketplace (or jsut have any default Sitecore deployment)
Install one Sitecore installation package on Content Management instance and publish
Have a fully functional demo website
Very similar to http://launchsitecore.net/ but for Sitecore 9+.
I do not want to:
Setup local development environment
Install any other tools and software
Rebuild solution, run gulp etc.
I know about Habitat, but it is not very trivial to setup.
Do you know if such one package install demo website exist?
I realize you mentioned you already know about Habitat, but for others who come looking for an answer to this I'll drop the link to the Habitat Home repositories:
https://github.com/Sitecore/Sitecore.HabitatHome.Content
https://github.com/Sitecore/Sitecore.HabitatHome.Commerce
These allow you to tell a full end-to-end Commerce and Content experience with everything ready for you.

The front-end of the Experience Platform demo can be viewed here: https://experienceplatform.habitathomedemo.com/
The front-end of the Experience Commerce demo can be viewed here:

App Source
There is also a 'no installation required' demo available from App Source, but this is currently running on version 8.2 (it will be updated to 9.x in the future):

I am in the process of researching a upgrade between a Sitecore 7.1 website to Sitecore 8.2. The site has the Social Connect Module installed.
I notice in Sitecore 8's Content Explorer, there is a pre-installed Social network structure. That looks very similar to the structure used in Sitecore 7.1's Social Connect Module.
My question is
Is this the same Sitecore 7 Social Connect Module just included in
Sitecore 8 installs?
If so, are there any notable changes I should consider between the
c# api?
I'm hoping that pre-existing user controls will just work. That would be awesome.
If you have any links to documents would be nice. Can't seems to find the right search term combo.
Thanks
Yes, that is the same module included into Sitecore Exprience Platform starting from 8.0 initial release (see the "Social Connected" section). Unfortunately there is no breaking changes report published, probably because the entire module became a new Platform component.
I'm building a website which requires forum integration to a Sitecore build - I've checked on the Sitecore website and they suggest YetAnotherForum and Telligent Community Integration Module. Both of these modules tho only support up till 6.4.1 and 6.4 respectively - I'm using Sitecore 7.0.
Logged a ticket with Sitecore and they came back with the following:
We have no information about Forum modules that are compatible with Sitecore 7.1. I would recommend you to contact your regional office and check whether they could advise you something.
Any suggestions?
First of all Telligent supports Sitecore 7.

I have been working with Sitecore and Telligent Community integration from quite time and from my experience i have this opinion.
For deep integration it is quite a lot of work and requires much knowledge of both the product and costs will be high for licensing & deployment. But i can assure you that Telligent will work in Sitecore newer version also. However with higher costs you will get more rich functionality, Facebook like Activity Stream, and Apart from Forums it also has Blogs, Wikis, Media Gallery.
Telligent supports two kind of integrations:
1. Side by Side Integration - In this Sitecore and Telligent both will be user facing.
2. Integration mode - In this user will be mostly in Sitecore.
Reference link
If you are Sitecore Partner you will get trial license of Telligent. For details check 'Social Starter Kit' on Sitecore SDN site. Also there is video on YouTube regarding Sitecore & Telligent Integration in Sitecore Virtual User Group community.
I have no experience on YAF module so can't suggest on that.
Did you try to install YAF integration module, https://marketplace.sitecore.net/en/Modules/YAF_integration.aspx, i think it would run on Sitecore 7, since this module mainly integrate YAF with Sitecore security, i don't see why it should not run on Sitecore 7.
The Telligent product was renamed, I suggest you take a look at http://www.zimbra.com/products/zimbra-community/sitecore-starter.html and contact them. I'm unaware of what version they're targeted at right now.
I currently work for a company that bought Sitecore & used a partner, my company bought 1 license.
The site went live a few months ago and now my company have now decided to cut ties with our partner and take the development of the sitecore site and any other sites inhouse.
My question is: Using the license our company currently has, can we develop the site, and can we create new sites etc?
If anyone can shed any light on what can and cant be done would be great as at the moment Im trying to get my head round how we take our current live site forward and how we think about creating new sites inside sitecore also.
Regards

As long as the license your company uses is a developer license, you can continue using it to develop that site and others, if it is for a different site and not a dev license you'll need to get a developer license from Sitecore.
You can usually email them at support#sitecore.com (it'll take a while to get a reply though).
I know there old and everything, and I already have Coldfusion 8, but I found a great hosting deal and need Coldfusion mx6.1 for it - deos anyone have a link to a place where i can download it?
ColdFusion mx 6.1 windows IS available form FigLeaf, they were given permission to host the downlaod from Adobe. From an old mailing list post I've have stored for prosperity.
Fig Leaf Software has been authorized by Adobe to provide older releases of
CF upon request:

hth,
john.
UPDATE 19/01/2012 - The above link is still active!
If you have good hosting deal and want cheap (or free) CFML engine, why wouldn't you try the Railo?
If you want a free CFML engine, then Railo is definitely the way to go! I've had it running on my server for about a year now and love it!
Official Coldfusion 6 is no longer downloadable from Adobe and support is discontinued.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/402/kb402091.html
There is no free edition of Coldfusion which can be used for business. Coldfusion 9 has a free educational version for universities as well as a developer's edition which can be used for up to two (2) ip addresses.
