iLife/Keynote $15 for teachers
Apple is really trying to get back into the education market by offering a free copy of Jaguar and an iLife/Keynote bundle for just $15.
Since my Mom teaches elementary school, we were able to take advantage of both of these offers.
It's not a bad deal considering I would have had to purchase iLife for $20 when I get my new PowerBook any way.
My Mom's going to try out Keynote for some lessons too. She was just doing a slideshow of Washington DC for her kids last week and the iLife/Keynote combo would have made it much easier to show.
Now only if Apple could get their hardware prices down to what they used to be for the education market, they might be able to get back into a good position.

Still, a $99 app, a $50 bundle and a $125 OS for only 15 bucks isn't just "not bad" its freaking great

What do you talk? you ordered your powerbook and have to pay the upgrade nominal fee? I am confused
this is a great offer, except that I bought Keynote three weeks ago and my mom eligble for this offer!

iLife isn't shipping on the 15" 1 GHz PowerBook G4s AFAIK. My new PowerBook is also a replacement that Apple Support is giving me in exchange for my PowerBook G3. Read more in GD about it if you want.

<strong>What about graduate instructors? I'm not gonna be full time faculty for a while yet, but I still need a good presentation program. We get shit on by administration and now we can't even get a price break Whatever... I've got a copy anyway. But I would have liked to be on the up and up.</strong><hr></blockquote>I'd give it a try. You're probably not taking any more classes, and you're probably employed full time in teaching/research (dissertation, right?). If you have a mailbox at the university, they'll probably give it to you. It's especially a good deal if you use iDVD at all, which would be $50 otherwise for the upgrade.
