Buy a new Mac before September 8, you can get a free iPod touch!

[Osiris]

Choose your Mac.

If you're a college student or a faculty or staff member at any grade level and you buy a new Mac before September 8, you can get a free iPod touch.* No wonder they call these the best years of your life.

So in other words Apple makes such a premium on these machines they can afford to giveaway a $250 device for free with them....

Wow, Apple is the king of misleading people. From that site:

Mac OS X is built on a rock-solid UNIX foundation to make it resistant to attacks from malicious programs. Translation:
a Mac doesn't get PC viruses. Ever.

Yeah, Macs don't get "PC" viruses because they do not use the same OS as PCs.... they still get Mac viruses though!

An they still sell copies of norton in store normally they have a few copies dotted round next to the large monitors on the Mac pro display with a flashy graphic on it so you don't see them but it's there for the sales guy to show you if you ask.

Once again, it's apple screwing over the Apple Resellers.

That's Apple for you. The amount of mark up that the stores get is 10%. And they have to conform to that pricing.

Shhhhh....... don't tell that to the Mac Users. It might burst their Mac-Happy Reality Bubble.


Anyways, back on topic.
