That's a hefty deal right there for students! If I were still in school and even if I didn't need a new laptop, I'd be tempted to buy one with that much of a discount.

I hadn't realized Best Buy had been around this long - 50 years.

Saved over $300 dollars on my Macbook Pro 15, at Best Buy, when it was on a daily deal. Better than any discount I was finding.

I'm more tempted by the new Mac Pro coming out :)

BestBuy has very reasonable prices and one of the best in Brick and Mortar comparison. They even price match Amazon sold products, what more do people want?
