That's good. It's just that the "No Warranty" bit of the terms and conditions frieked me out a tad (as I'm sure you can imagine). Obviously, it only applies to the random crap that Apple might send you. Otherwise they wouldn't offer Applecare.

Education Discount is the best?

can anyone tell me the exact amount of discount for a 2.0ghz c2d white or black macbook (not pro) with ADC? thanks!
At least in the Apple store, the base model is exactly the same cost as with educational discount. The only way you'll get extra savings is if you upgrade the RAM or HDD. The super discount only applies to the MBP, and the MP.
Instead of wasting the once-in-a-lifetime super student discount on a Macbook, why don't you either just buy the Macbook Edu, or go for a MBP?
It wouldn't be worth it, you wait that once-in-a-lifetime chance plus the savings still does not justify your $99 membership fee.
I doubt it. I mean the extra discount is only like 10% on top of the Edu discount, on the things it applies to.
So if you spend $200 on upgrades, you'll only save like 20 bucks, and considering it costs 99 bucks to join...
Basically, you might be able to get some decent savings if you buy the 24" iMac, and load it with 3GB RAM and the better graphics card.
The only other thing you can really load to save money is the Mac Pro, and you're already getting a discount on that.
