RTFM is for elitist a-holes, that think they are better b/c THEY read the manual and you didn't. If I asked you what War and Peace was about would you tell me RTFBook if you had read it? That kind of defeats the purpose if I'm asking about the book to decide if I want to read it or not, now doesn't it? Dumbass. Oh and go <a href="http://www.penny-arcade.com/images/2002/20020712l.gif" target="_blank">here</a>
reason i'm asking is, i would like to sign up, and order jaguar. but i want jaguar on the day it comes out. if i order @ the apple store i'd have to wait for shipping, if i get it at my nearby apple retail store, i can get it THAT day
btw: what does rtfm [or wutever it was] stand for?
no you cant... the apple store will NOT provide EDU discounts on ANY software.... ONLY hardware..... <img src="graemlins/oyvey.gif" border="0" alt="[No]" /> it sucks... but thats what they said @ the SoHo Store AND the RF store...

Paul, duhhhhh. You can only get discounts on items that are marked for discounts. Academic editions of software are often given their own part numbers from the manufacturer. Apple cannot sell you a full retail version of Microsoft Office v.X at the academic price. The two products are distinct.
However, anything you find on the Apple Store Online that is discounted and also in the retail store will be eligible.

<strong>Does anyone know the difference between the academic and regular versions of Office X and Virtual PC 5.0??</strong><hr></blockquote>
The only difference is that you have to be a student or academic to buy them. No difference in features at all, I use them both.
