When I bought my last iBook, Apple phoned my University, my folks, and they phoned me. They wanted copies of application and acceptance documents faxing to them. Damn right watch your ass!michaelrjohnson said:Nothing. It's an honesty policy. (But they go back and audit too, so dont' lie)

Abstract said:That's because you can buy one of each. You can buy 1 desktop for the year and a laptop if you wish, but not 2 desktops. I'm not sure if that means that you can't buy a G5 PM and an eMac, but as a general explanation, you can buy one per year of whatever you're buying. That means only one iPod, for example.
The other explanation is that they didn't check.
@Brap: This is the first time I have ever heard of someone being checked by Apple.
An alternative to lying about it is to enroll in a cheap class at a community college that's recognized by Apple on their website, and then buy a G5 PM that way. It may not be worth it if all you're buying is an iBook or 12" PB, but on larger purchases, you'd save heaps of money.
Damn, talk about loosing your privacy and more power to the stalkers. Hell, I'll call my University's admissions office so to get some cute chick's number and home addy.brap said:When I bought my last iBook, Apple phoned my University, my folks, and they phoned me.
