Apple's Back to School Promo Starting Next Week

so, how do they confirm that you are in school?

i just graduated this past august.

student id?

I'm 32 and have been out of college, well, for 11 yrs. When I bought my wife's iMac recently, the AAPL employee asked us if we were students. We said no. He said are you sure?, and I then got the hint and said "yes, we are students at XYX local college. He smiled, we smiled, and left paying a lot less than a non-student.

So, I suppose it depends on the salesperson, the stars aligning, or something like that, as to how lucky you get. We got lucky.

I don't think it's a big deal as AAPL is printing money right now. Sales are sales...inventory going out is a huge deal for stockholders.

WTF? Back to school?? Kids are barely getting out this month.

Its anticipation for Back to School and clearing out inventories. This goes on for the entire summer.

PS - I've been waiting for this!

I. Just. Can't. Wait. Anymore. So...if I buy a Macbook Pro tomorrow, Monday, and they announce it on Tuesday like the rumors say, can I take part in the promotion and return it and buy it again or something like that? If so, how many days do I have to do it? Will I have to pay extra for Lion? Is it hard to install? Is there a Target in heaven?

For the love of all that is holy... please read the thread. The Internet does not revolve around you, and these questions have been answered ON THIS VERY PAGE. Learn how to cmd+F already.

I can't tell you how excited I am for this amazing promo to happen. I LIVE FOR MAC PRODUCTS! So, what specifically is the offer, and when will it be available? Also, is the rebate taken off the initial bill or do you have to pay for everything and send something back? BOY THIS IS GREAT!!!:)

Does anyone know if in the past you had to pay for the iPod along with the mac up front or did you just get the rebate when you buy the Mac with out paying for the iPod? How was this done in the past? I would assume it would be the same this time around?

How many times will someone ask this question in this thread?:confused:
