I was just looking over these options. I was planning on purchasing a new i7 online with the educational discount (after the event because of the planned iLife announcement) So, it sounds like Apple was planning on charging 6.99 regardless of when I actually made my purchase? How do I know (since I'd probably be buying online) if the newer version of iLife was coming with it? I spec'd one out this morning, and it still had the iWork '09 option, but didn't say anything about iLife. Thanks for any info!
