Multiple Macbooks - business discount

[Sesshi]

I've lost my mini-battle to foist some Dell Latitudes upon some guys I will be working with, so we'll be buying a few Macbooks. I was wondering through what channels in the UK I could get the best discount. Is it better to go through an Apple Reseller? I'm looking to a mix of 2.0 white/blackbooks with 2gb/160gb and Applecare.

I would call Apple there in the UK and see if they can't cut a deal with you.

Here is the portion of the Apple UK site that has the business contact information:

Good luck! I am interested to see if Apple will deal in bulk purchases.

Well, I just bought an iMac 20" C2D from a Apple reseller. They gave me $20 off and they made $60 dollars on the transaction - about 3.5% Then they gave $31.15 of that to Visa as merchant fees for the priviledge of taking my charge card.
