Apple Federal Store: $64.50. But you have to work for the Federal, State, or County government to qualify.

Try the Amazon.co.uk / Amazon.com, they have the MacOS 10.2 for £16 less than normal price of £100.

would military members fall under this category? It's kind of hazy on who exactly we work for :-)

Also if you're in education you can get it for $69. That's what I did. Almost half the price of retail! Cool beans huh? <img src="graemlins/smokin.gif" border="0" alt="[Chilling]" />

yea im getting my mom to order it, nice, thanks for the suggestion graphiteman. I'm also gonna check my college mac only computer store, i think i can still buy stuff from them even though i graduated.

btw i don't get why apple's hardware price discounts for education really blow, my old school store has better prices than them. The federal, state and gov discounts are better, what kind of sense does that make.


in school = poor

work for the man = you have a job
