Been looking at the Dual 2.5 GHz PowerMac for myself, and decided to do some math.

In the US, its $2999 through the Apple store. Through their Canadian store Apple charges $4199

But $3000 US = $3900 CDN with current exchange rates.

Granted that Apple charges the right amount with the education discount with a $100 discount on top of that, but its still annoying.
