This year was quite the disappointment. Would have been smart to create buzz by discounting the iPhone / iPod Touch for at least Black Friday.

I took advantage of 100 off the price of the base MacBook last year. Not as good of a deal this year . Looks like I am going to an other store this year .
Taking little over $50 off the price hardly sounds worth it to me :( . At least last years discount was higher than the sales tax my state charges, this year not so much .

Yeap. Not much of a special sale to me. Anyway, I will swing by to the local Apple Store at 8am as I have to see the Mac Genius.

Perhaps that could be an indication that Apple is happy with they amount of units they are selling.

Apple is raking in money hand over fist.
You'd think they could throw us a bone with some meat on it.
