Any chance of 15" MacBook Pros dropping in price soon?

Duff-Man says....not likely. But you say you want to drop $2000 - that's the base price on a MacBook Pro, and if you check the refurb section at Apple you can get one for as little as $1350 right now.....oh yeah!

Models come and go in the refurb store.
Duff-Man says...it's gone now - I just refreshed the store. Either it was snapped up quickly or was a mistake and they corrected it...but it *was* there!...oh yeah!

They have a 2.8 GHz, 4GB RAM, 320 GB HD, 15" MBP for $2,299!
Give me one reason why not to buy this computer refurbished from Apple?
(Also, is the upgrade to 2.93 GHz worth $270 - student price)??

Can't give you a reason not to buy it. DO IT!!!
My opinion is that the upgrade would not be worth it. Unless you are doing to very intensive stuff, you probably won't see a difference. Either one is lightning fast!
No chance. Apple really doesn't change prices. They introduce new machines with more features at the same price point. A MBP 15" has been $1999 for a long time and likely will remain at that price until the massive inflation from the govt's bailout package kicks in.
