Apple Store Special Deals

[zblaxberg]

So I'm not sure if anyone noticed but ( I got really bored because I'm snowed in and have nothing better to do than peruse the apple store) on the apple stores promos page there is a save $200 on Final Cut Express HD and the offer ends March 27, 2007 which happens to be a Tuesday. There is also a .Mac deal that ends April 23, 2007 which is a Monday (day before Tuesday).

Think these could be clues as to the release of anything? Just curious as to what you guys think.

[second question has been retracted]

Think these could be clues as to the release of anything? Just curious as to what you guys think. Also there is refurbished MBP deals on the site...how reliable are the refurbished 'certified' MBP's. If I were to buy one is it going to be all scratched up and a piece of junk? Do they give them new batteries so we won't have one that's been charged 500 times already? How does that work?

So I guess there is two questions here but like I said I'm bored and wanted to know what you guys think.

i think the promo end dates are just coincidences... they don't need to have a promo for software (and really not .mac) before update them. it's not like they are emptying the storage facility to make room for the new ones

and the refurb stuff... try to do a search next time, alright? i'll just leave you to that.
