They're brand new in sealed boxes. FYI (and I've had it happen) if you need warranty and their record conflicts with your receipt the receipt wins.
Got a tip for us?

True but why would you need to carry that much data with you on an ongoing basis seriously? I am in IT and use way more than anyone else would need to do, and it works just fine for me.
Maybe we need a couple hundred gb for an Oracle database project we are working on?
If and when the macbook air 15 comes out I am going to be seriously tempted for a setup with a 512 ssd ... once you have the space you can always fill it up!
Somehow I doubt they will exchange mine since i only paid 900...though technically i can only go up having lg and toshiba
They are new unopened, I watched the guy pull it off the rack. It even had the original shrink wrap.
I only have like 4 gigs of music. The thought of not having everything I need in one place is absurd. I don't use that much memory considering 256 serves me well. I've never had a need for an external harddrive.
I wanted to wait for Ivy Bridge to upgrade my +4 year old Macbook but this is really too good to pass up, especially without tax.
Ordered and should be ready for pickup tomorrow.
Can't wait!

Can't wait!Apple Store Price Match
I had about $600 in gift cards to the Apple store, so I didn't want to purchase at Best Buy. I went down to the Apple Store, showed them the online ad, and they gave me the $200 discount. It took the manager to get approval, but I got no push back and a MacBook Air from the Apple Store for $1099. They just needed to verify that the part numbers matched. I've never seen the Air discounted this much ever before, so I think I got a great deal.

Search 13" Macbook Air in the search field on the Best Buy Site and add to cart to see the $1099 price or click the weekly ad link at the top of the Best Buy Site.
darn it, I paid the full price at Apple in Sept, is there any way I can return it?
My wife saw the ad for this in Sunday's paper. She looked long and hard at it and even asked my opinion. Then she thought better of it and decided that our 2010 Macbook Pro still has a lot of life left. I hope Best Buy does this again next year, 'cause it might be time to think about an upgrade by then.
Really?!?! You got 2 months worth of use for $200... Call it a wash.
Remember, Karma is a b*tch.
It's hilarious when people get angry at sales after they've bought something. Like they're the first and only ones to ever buy something at the tail end of it's product cycle or coincidental sale.
Hell to the Yeah!
Parents bought me one for Christmas yesterday!
Now waiting until December 17th...
