ID.ME has it all wrong. I used the Veterans and Military Purchase Program through them and it took awhile, but the 10% discount came through.
Got a tip for us?

Got the base model ordered for launch day delivery through the edu store eventually after everything ground to a halt and I waffled about the 14 vs 16”. Was the app any faster for ordering? I couldn’t use it because I needed the education discount. I’m hoping I like the huge size, otherwise I will have to exchange at the Apple Store if they have any in stock.
Careful, you'll talk yourself into the fact that you neeeeeeeeeeeeeed it!Geekbench score is here

Yes, I did what everyone here is doing if you order something and aren’t 100% satisfied… stalk the apple website…
I was able to cancel my original order for the 14inch basic MacBook Pro… and now I’ll get the same MacBook as before but with the better 96W charger… and for the small up charge of 20€ I’ll now get it one week earlier (estimated Nov 3rd-8th) and hopefully just in time for my online course starting Nov 8th… (well, and I can fast charge it…might be useful too)
now I am happy!
Can’t wait to read all of your shipping notifications and get fully hyped!

I'm going to sleep over it, then probably get the 14" Max (because of the double memory speed), 32GHz and then fret about 1 or 2TB. See you on the other side!
No and at this point in Apple TV+ history, it’s only three Months free that one gets one time.
Can't stack. The Apple TV+ offer only applies as a new customer too (you can't have been a previous Apple TV+ subscriber / utilized a past offer). Only way you'd be able to is if you use a different Apple ID for it (which to me wouldn't be worth the hassle).
The promos should stack, I have the PS5 six months and iPhone 13 three month currently unless that was a special case.
How weird. I ordered the MBP 14" inch BASE model but didn't realize I didn't have my payment method updated (ok, truthfully I didn't think that they were going to go on PREORDER today so I forgot to make sure I had everything good to go).
I processed the order in fear of losing the 10/26 delivery window... luckily the base 14" is still delivering 10/26 and I was able to process a 2nd order with the correct payment method. Had to CALL Apple to cancel the first one and then suddenly my 2nd order DID have a cancel link. It seems like there was just a lag on getting the option to cancel.
@TheYayAreaLiving - I haven't read this whole thread but WHY did you need to cancel one of them?
@LFC2020 are you SERIOUSLY NOT ORDERING ONE??
I may, MAY have to sell the M1 iPad if I fall head over heels with the MBP. It's far too much machine for me but I want to see how I feel about it when it arrives. May have to request to work from home next Tuesday, LOL.
I've decided that if I do fall in love with the new MBP I will cancel my Apple Watch order (as long as it hasn't shipped by then - my delivery date isn't until Nov 24th so I have PLENTLY OF TIME) as to offset the extra spending. Then I will look into selling the M1 iPad if this MBP is all that I was longing for!
Wish me luck!
16", M1 Pro MAX, 64GB, 4TB. Probably could of gone with the M1 Pro, but why not.
Probably could of gone with the M1 Pro, but why not.Really don't know what to order. I do all my photo/video stuff on my 27" iMac. A base 14" would do what I need but I have a hard time not getting the 10core CPU and 16core GPU upgrade then if I am getting that, might as well 32gb on the RAM. I don't need those things but I keep my MBP for 4-5yrs so buy once cry once if thats the case might as well +400 and get the Max processor upgrade aaaand we are at $3299.
Side note, anyone elses work EPP not offering a discount on these machines?

He’s going to have one less kidney and shiny new MBP by next weekMy hard earned money is on the line. He will be ordering it shortly
I always order on the app but I needed the $200 education savings and to apply an Apple account balance. The website was such a mess. Thankfully still got launch day - I traded in my ancient Macbook Air last week and I’m in school so need the new one asap.
During check out on the website there is a box to check to apply account balance.
Did you order?
I’m seriously hoping that Apple releases a M1 Pro Mac Mini before the year is out. If not, I may have to reconsider the base 14” especially since it can now handle multiple monitors.
I'm crying hard at $5230 of shiny penny tears. Only way is to MAX it.
Welcome! It's great to see you here. We missed you during iPhone 13 Pre-Order launch. Rest assure, please were asking about you.
I had to cancel one of the order because I ordered two Macbook Pro's. One Macbook Pro M1 Pro and 1 MacBook Pro M1 Max. I panicked and blacked out so I was trying to order as many Mac's as I could to obtain a launch delivery date. All is well now. Rough morning today!
I was also unsure If I wanted the Pro Model or Pro Max model.
Will the mouse:
a) hide behind the notch
b) wrap around the notch
c) teleport through the notch
When you move the mouse across it?
Very important question (could even decide whether i buy this MacBook /s)

Trust me! He's going to order it. Silently! Hitman status. Wait for @LFC2020 to drop a big bomb on us
It doesn't give you an option to use gift cards/account balance if you have AppleCare on the product
