What happens if, say, next month, Apple runs a special for new Macbook owners; "20% off any Macbook accessory, just enter your serial number"...?

call me paranoid, but I ain't giving the serial # of my brand new computer to some random website.

A serial number contains no personal data whatsoever so it's harmless.
It just holds specs info and build info.

The serialnumber IS linked to personal information but only when a site like this is connected and interacting with Apple's database that holds the info and... only Apple can do that, not this site :)
 
Wow, they have no clue where my 2.4 Macbook was made!! :D
