Hi, I read a thread back in 2005 that the chances of Apple checking for the student ID number from buying it online is pretty low... and I was wondering if that was the case for 2009. I live in Australia if that makes a difference.

I'm a student... just not in University yet!
 
You don't have to be a student at a university to get a discount.

How to receive the education discount
If you are a university or TAFE student, or a teacher, administrator, staff member of any grade level, you qualify for special pricing on Apple computers, software, and select third party products.

Parents can purchase on behalf of their child who is a student currently attending, accepted or applied for admission into an Australian university or TAFE.

Quantity limits apply: one desktop and/or one notebook per academic year. See terms and conditions.

To get started savings, select the most appropriate option on the left-hand side.
