Apple offers new promos to education customers

Apple is offering a special 20-pack bundle of eMacs for $950 each or a 20-pack of iBooks for $850 each, when purchased through the Apple Store for Education (Institutions). The offer lasts through December 19 or until supplies last and is available to qualifying higher education schools. Apple new 'Space Savings' is a new educational promtion, offering a $150 discount on a Bretford cart (for the iPod lab) or $150 on the purchase of a Bretford sit-Stand Workstation. The items must be purchased on the same invoice as a Mac before February 28, 2004.

Please check your source and verify before posting.

Both units come with just CD-RW.

$950 (each) for an eMac, regardless of configuration (with a purchase of 20-pack) is no bargain, by the way.

according to the site, its a 20 pack superdrive emac, normally 999, now 949....its only a $50 savings, but it is a discount.

there seems to also be a second emac 20 pack, for 649 for the cdrom-only model. thats $100 off, but the normal lowend emac comes with a combo drive.

The only bundle i can find with ibooks is a 'previous generation - g3' ibook 5 pack for $750 (cdrom only, again) per unit.

...sleep of death...

Yes they finally fixed the problem after 62 days and 4 parts... Turns out that it was the video card (that's what I told them from day 1).

Not sure what is was but they changed the HD, MOBO and 2 video cards!

Sold the unit the minute I got it back. I'm sure it would have been fine (eveything was new in it) but it was full of bad memories...

Got a DP 2 GHz and got a whole bunch of NEW problems. Everything is ok now. I exchanged it for a DP 1.8 and I'm very happy with it. It's my favorite mac of all time (I've had 15)

good luck
