Apple Store sale at Leopard Release?

[Foxer]

I know that in the past, Apple Stores offered a general 10% off sale at OS release events. Has anyone heard about this for Leopard? Does anyone remember if they did it last time?

In the past was that plus the edu discount?

If thats true, combined with a edu discount, it might be worth the trek to one of the tax free states, you'd really clean up that day with a new MBP or something.

something tells me i doubt you'd get both discounts

In the past, I -believe- it was an either/or for the EDU discount, but I wasn't a student so I don't know for certain.

Anybody know if you can (or have been able to in the past) get a general 10% discount on release date in the UK?

If so i'm buying a macbook pro

I thought so too, just making sure

When Tiger was released, you got scratch-off coupon cards that were good for discounts or songs from ITMS.

Unless I was in a huge hurry to get home and install Tiger, don't remember there being a storewide sale.

For Panther there was a store wide 10% discount on all new systems. Don't know about Tiger or the EDU discount, but I hope the 10% discount for new hardware is there on Friday.
