How does Apple check if you're a student? I graduated years ago but still have access to my university's Apple Store, so I can still (theoretically, I haven't tried it) purchase things with a student discount, even though I graduated 4 yrs ago.

I hope the new Mac Books are ready before the sale ends.

maybe this means a price drop is combing soon as well?
Same here...any guesses?
My girlfriend just bought a MacBook last week (with student discount), any way she can get herself an iPod Touch?
Looks like we'll be seeing a lot of iPod Touches on sale in the Marketplace. I really wanted to wait for Montevina MacBooks though.
This is fantastic. I've been waiting months to get a mbp. I've saved up and waited for the acceptance letter, then saved up and waited some more for the summer deal, and finally it's all come together!
I'm pretty sure the student discounts go through the colleges, that is, the colleges probably have to pay something, or Apple has a deal with them (makes the colleges promote them or something of the sort). High schools are, for the most part, public and state-run, so they probably don't see giving them discounts anymore to their advantage than giving everyone discounts.
I'll just keep my buyer waiting then. They're hurting at spending ~$1,000 on my current MacBook as it is.Then wait. If they come out before the promo ends (sept I think) they'll most likely include the new one. If not, you'll miss out.
to add to that, i don't know of any highschool student who needs to bring a laptop to school. i don't ever remember seeing someone with a laptop when i was in highschool, but that was 5 years ago. maybe times have changed?
Could you ditch the iPod and get a discount from the computer (short of flogging the iPod)?
Yeah, I think it's called make your money back by selling it on eBay![]()
Depending on where you live and when you send in your rebate *cough* Indiana in June */cough*That's about right. In reality, you'll pay more at the time of purchase, since the rebate is mail-in. You'll get your money back 10 weeks later.

It's more like 2 weeks. At least it was back in 2005. More sods are buying Macs nowadays.
I used a laptop in high school from Grade 9 all the way through Grade 12. My high school had an academic program specialized around business and technology, so the whole school was set up with wireless, It made taking notes a whole lot easier and lunches were a lot more fun playing counterstrike on LAN with fellow mates.to add to that, i don't know of any highschool student who needs to bring a laptop to school. i don't ever remember seeing someone with a laptop when i was in highschool, but that was 5 years ago. maybe times have changed?
