My friend at UCLA told me the other day about Apple Developers Connection for Students and how you can pay $99 and get monthly DVDs of new mac apps and major OS updates, but he told me the best thing is you get a one time only HUGE Discount on hardware. However, after more research I found out that this is for developers.
Currently I am a Computer Science at the University of Califorina majoring in Computer Science, with emphisis in Softwear Engr. but this iBook i want to buy is my first mac since the old school macintoch. However, do wish to learn about the inner workings of OSX. I was curious to know if the macRumors community thinks it's ethical for me in piticular to use this program.
Would it be ethical if i decide to join ADC and not using the discount. Joinning for the recources that ADC offers.
Having that said, i was wondering what kind of discount one could get if they were an ADC using this one time only discount. I was looking at the mac pages about ADC and there wasn't a define % or number. People who's used this program could you relay back how much discount you get. Is it beyon what is listed on http://store.apple.com/AppleStore/WebObjects/ADC?qprm=38839 or is there more. If thats it, it doesn't seem very HUGE. It looks like what the EDU discounts would be.
Could people who've used this discount tell me about their experiences and the process they went throught to get this discount. What their overall opinion is and just general comments
