What and where are you studying? My girlfriend is a grad student at Kingston Uni, and all she got was a paltry 10% off from the apple store...

There are two tiers of education pricing. Higher education prices (biggest discount) are only available through your University's network however if you click start chat on the apple store and tell them your a higher ed. student then ask how much iLife is. They'll give you a temporary link to purchase from outside your university network. I do it this way because I study with the Open University.

I just picked up a copy. I do a lot of iWeb stuff for my company. I really love the integrated FTP upload stuff. Also, I have three completely different webpages as part of iweb. In the past when you wanted to publish, it treated them all as being one big webpage. Pain the butt. Now, you can assign a different upload address (mobile me, ftp or to file location) for each sub page.

Nice.

Good to hear since I use iWeb for several sites as well. Thanks.

Amazon has the Box Set Family pack for $199.00.

I wasn't going to get the box set, just the new individual box sets, but for the same price I can get the Box set. Placing my order in a few minutes!

Ilive 09

I pre-ordered IL09 last week, it arrived an hour ago.
Some intense face recognition going on in Iphoto at the moment, but my library is 11k plus pic's so it's got 95 minutes to go!
Meantime playing with Places feature (Maps). Also Imovie is nice. I opened Garageband to play a little. It's Christmas all over again.

My shipment tracking now says "Shipment exception — delay beyond our control." The estimated delivery date shows as Jan 27, 2009 by 4:30 PM. Would this estimated delivery date be correct even though my package is delayed?

I'm assuming that probably means weather-related, there's some big snow storms all across the midwest right now. It might not get to you yet in this case...

It appears so, it's still sitting 6 hours away from me. The estimated delivery date has been removed now. The last things it says on the shipment travel history is that it left Memphis, TN, then 2 hours later it has "shipment exception" in Albuquerque, NM.

Best Buy Today

Walked right into my local Best Buy and asked for the ILife '09. Salesman proceeded to locked cabinet and moved some old copies of ILife '08 aside and proceeded to open a brand new box up which had about 24 copies of ILife '09. Used my 10% off coupon that a previous person posted and out the door I went. Awesome and quick. Installed and just starting my venture.

COOL!!!

 

[skillwill]

Wow how badly do people need to organise their photos by faces and places that they need to claim $75 gift cards from Best Buy, and we wonder why stores are closing down and the economy is ****.

Hope not on the FedEx plane in TX I think that skidded of the runway and caught fire.

That's what I thought at first since Fedex always goes through Lubbock (where the plane crashed), but the tracking information doesn't mention anything about it leaving Albuquerque (or even getting there).

iMovie has AVCHD preview!!!!

Finally! AVCHD preview that does not totally crash my computer. In the new iMovie I can preview my raw AVCHD files before I convert them to .MOV files. This is such a lifesaver. Toast 9 has a similar feature but the files were unwatchable, same with VLC. Apple got this one right. Great job!

I ordered my ILife online this past Sunday. I've been watching the shipping status. It started out as a DHL delivery, and yesterday it was handed over to the post office a few hundred miles from where I live. I thought that was odd.

I'm hoping to receive it today, tomorrow at the latest (only cause I'm impatient).

 

[Lershac]

It would be hilarious (except to you)

If the tracking said "your ***** caught fire and burned up, so sorry!"

stores are closing down and the economy is 'walla' cause folks aren't making purchases.

I highly doubt that Best Buy is bothered by folks redeeming that money for ilife with them rather than sitting on it. Because if they come in now for ilife in a couple of weeks they might be back for something bigger.

Thank you so much! You just saved me £30!!!

My package is moving again. It's about 30 miles from my house! It did go through Lubbock today, so it was probably delayed because of the plane crash.

Edit: I just got it, installing now.

 

[earthandtone]

So the new mac books and mac book pros will ship with i life 09?
