    Up here in the great white north, I got a nice edu discount on the 12". Retail is 2899$ CAD, but apple edu online says 2699$. When I first called the campus store, they mis-quoted me as 2810$, so i went ahead and ordered from Apple. However, i got an email yesterday from the campus store, telling me that they had made a mistake, and that their price is 2499$. 400$ off the retail... very nice. I couldn't add the extra 20 gigs of harddrive though for the usual price of $75, for some reason the customize order bumped the price up to well above 2700$. I probably won't get it as quickly from the store as i would have from Apple directly, but for the 200$ savings, I'll wait an extra week!

    $1438 for the 12" PowerBook! Maybe I do need to change schools. I had no idea that some schools got prices that were even better than the general education institution pricing. Wow.

    depends on the size of the school i would guess. i believe this is one of the top 5 in the nation. used to be #2 for sure. although i'm not sure i should say which one exactly. not 100% sure of their policy on sharing in school pricing info.
