I must correct those who don't know what they're talking about. The ADC Hardware discount saves you A LOT more than the regular education discount. Granted the discount is more gracious if you buy the "Power" products, but the savings are quite significant.
For example: 17" PB through ADC = $2639 as compared to the regular student discount of $3149.
Through ADC a 15GB iPod is $319, 30 = $399
regular Student discount = $369 for 15, and $469 for 30GB
Now if you want an imac or something you won't save as much, but you will still save more, including your $100 membership fee.
17" iMac through ADC = $1878...through student discount = $2271. That's $293 worth of savings right there, taking out your membership fee.
Like I said before, you save more if you buy a PowerMac or Powerbook, but as you just saw you still save if you want an iMac or ibook or something like that. Remeber this is a one time deal though, so you want to get as much as you can for your money. And who knows, maybe you can actually try developing while you're receiving the information and support from Apple. Good luck and I hope this silences those who are saying that the regular education discounts save you just as much.
