All the old models are gone from the Swedish edu store.

Hope you're right. 'Us' poor students couldn't do without the edu discount. What on earth am I supposed to use to play music downstairs at my party while the fellas do kegstands? My notebook? Cos last time we tried that, someone spilled beer on it and we had to lie to get the warranty to cover it...jellomizer said:My best guess is the MacBook Pro Core 2 Duos are being held untill after this offer. Probably to keep the margins up or at a proffit.

You don't use them in classes for school work. They are really only entertainment devices. I don't know of many entertainemnt devices that have student discounts (besides over-priced movies at thetres).
Could you imagine using a student discount for an X-Box or Playstation3?

Today I could buy an iPod with the same capacity for half of what I paid, and as an added bonus, it has a bigger screen, way thinner, color display, plays videos, pictures, slideshows; has gapless playback, considerably longer battery life etc...
face it; iPods are an absolute steal these days.
It's $299 on my end for Edu Store in CanadaMistaBungle said:I just checked it out on the Canadian EDU page and the regular price is $299 and when I went to education and whatnot, the price dropped down to $249 for the 60gb. ?????
