Student pricing for Apple products
After Steve Jobs' keynote speech at today's MacWorld, Rick and I jumped online to buy new "MacBooks." With an Intel Core Duo processor, our new laptops will include iSight cameras, so now we'll be able to video chat while working on this site. (Randy will complain they're not Linux-based and Darren will short AAPL...)
Apple offers a 10% student discount, even on the newest products. Click here and enter "94720" for Berkeley's zip code. We're still eligible since we're technically not graduates from Columbia until May.
P.S. Darren - Apple sold 42MM iPods last year -- more than 1 per second during the holiday season. I figure they can convert 5-10% of that user base to laptops and iMacs.

The place for Berkeley student discounts on all computer-related hardware and software products is http://tsw.berkeley.edu. Use your student ID and AirBears login. Over the last few months I've purchased an IBM X40 ThinkPad, a couple of iPods and the new MacBook Pro. They also have regular specials on Dell hardware and all kinds of printers.
Not sure when our student discount is really set to expire -- so sooner might be better.
