Well, hopefully soon...

Nah buy it from http://www.edu.com Im not sure if you'll have to pay taxes since Im not sure what state they are in, but they are the best that I have seen.

Actually hmm.. they don't look as good as they used to.. they used to have a bunch of mac products, etc etc.. and now.. not really at all, although good prices on software like they always have had. So hmm.. what I would do is call all these people up, call apple up and find out what the final price would be, then call pcconnection up and find out from them what their price would be.. that's what I always do when I purchase anything, but usually I call a whole bunch of people that I find on this site: http://www.pricegrabber.com

Good luck!

That looks like a cool site, but I couldn't locate any Apple computers, only software.

MacAddict

BTW, does anyone get MacAddict? Do you like it?

Sweet! Thanks for the lightning-fast reply (thats one thing I really like about this place )

Oh yeah, absolutely love it.. I can't wait to get it every month.. it's really quite an awesome mag, great humor, great reviews, nice contests, just a very well put together magazine that not only has a lot of information in it, but you really enjoy reading it.

MacAddict and MacWorld are both excellent magazines

Heh, if I could afford both, I would get them =). I'm having to give up one of my mags as it is to get Addict. Of course, I'll probably get the 'Book first

Which is better? Addict or World?

I bought my powerbook with the discount and it worked fine for me....just bought an emac for my dad a few weeks ago under my sisters name and it worked

When you did this, did you order online or thru the phone? Thru the phone, i found (when i called for final pricing) that the guy wanted to know what subject i taught, etc. Dunno about online.

Bought the powerbook at the store itself and the eMac online

And they had no problems with it in the brick-and-mortar? Didn't they question that you are a student?

didn't have any problems....they told me they didn't even need my student id at the store and the online purchase went through fine

Sweet! No ID request at the online either?? Just select your school and buy?

yea all you have to do is verify that you accept the agreement that you are either in college or have been accepted to college, or are a teacher in your school district

The on-line Apple store does verify if you are a student or not.

Ahem. So if you are just in high school, what should you do?

I don't think there are any problems with just filling it all out in your name

They contact the school to see if you are in the enrollment

What happens if they find you arent a student in college, or teach in high school? i.e. they find out you are a student in high school?

BTW, just my opinion, but I think that high school students should be allowed the discount! If college-level students get it, and K-12 teachers, 9-12 grade students should get it too!
