Is there a student discount and an HE discount? (separate things) I assume there's practically no chance of offering the latter (@ £58.75)?

HE, i have bought many things with HE discount in store before so i don't see why this would be any different but as they aren't certain who knows.
 
yeah, Preview is a kick-ass application now! i love it!

a few drawbacks i've noticed so far (as i too have received it... um... because i live in Japan too):

1) Techtools Pro 4 does not work with Leopard
2) The dock magnification (bottom view) is a big sluggish
3) Photoshop CS3, Safari, Azureus are lightening fast

Well I hope they do offer it!! I'm going home on Saturday evening for reading week so I'd have ample time to play with it :D Do you just have to show your Student ID card?
 
I'm not trying to be a jerk. But I don't understand the tag line. Add a new mac to my mac? Maybe

"Add a new bag of tricks to your bag of tricks" would have been much more powerful.

Does anyone understand it - ?

Gee. I understand the tag line just fine and think it's pretty good. On the other hand, what the heck is "your bag of tricks" refering to? ;-)

Yeah, well this is the slogan deal they used on their site - not sure I buy it completely, cause although Leopard is new, Im not sure it "adds a New mac to my Mac." Doesn't seem like a big enough change from Tiger to get away with that.

Nah, it's weird, it's more like you are replacing the soul of it to begin with.

Maybe they should have said:
Remove/Delete your mac, and put it back again.
With timemachine in Leopard.

Thought that's very lame aswell.

Just type Leopard vertically on a tilted shiny bar at one side of the T-shirt to upset people instead! ;D

(I'll have to make a screenshot of that myself and print it out for a shirt ;D)
 
Forget the tshirts, did anyone else try to click the X in the quick look picture to close the window? D'oh! :p

I tried to click OK (seriously:eek:) on the preview resize window...:rolleyes:
These little features look very, berry cool. I'm takin' the MBP to work tomorrow!!!
 
It looks like Apple took the features I used in Quicksilver and put them in Spotlight. Nice.
 
The missing Line on the T Shirt

"But will not work with Apple Software"

I was shocked to hear the some of Apples biggest software products will not work on the new Leaopord

50% of my business is done on Filemaker Pro

Yes an Apple Product

In small print it now say

Apple does not reccomend you use Leapord as it will not work correctly with File maker Pr


That s the Pot calling the kettle Black

My God
 
That's the Staff shirt!!!!!

Hey, Just letting you know customers will be receiving the Black size Large only which arent huge with a big space picture and the X over it just like the leopard box copies.
 
Box shots etc... and yes there are the apple stickers, but the photo didn't show them well.

Wow, that shirt is horrific. Ugh. I was hoping for something nicer.
Now I don't know if I want to go there tomorrow night and wait in line.

Filemaker is a wholly owned subsidiary of Apple, Inc. Not the same thing as an Apple product. It's a Filemaker product.
 
First Issue with Leopard

Hi all,

Well, everything seems to be working fine, if not really well until...

I installed iLife, then I tried to do a software update and I keep getting this message:
The file “index-leopard.merged-1.sucatalog” couldn’t be found on the server “swscan.apple.com”.

I am guessing it is Apple's server and not my machine, but I am interested to know if any of you guys came or come across this problem.

What color are the T-shirts?

Kind of a dumb shirt. Who is actually going to wear that outside of AppleFairyland? I sure wouldn't. Would have been nice if they just gave out a plain black t-shirt or something with maybe the space background.
As an Apple enthusiast, I'm always in AppleFairyLand, so I'll proudly wear it around town. But I dislike wearing those T-shirts you get at music concerts, which show the list of cities on a group's tour. They seem dated so quickly! If it's 18 months until the next major Mac OS X release, this shirt will be good for a while.
