Alongside today's introduction of a new stripped-down 16 GB iPod touch, Apple has also reduced pricing for educational customers on its 13-inch non-Retina MacBook Pro. The prices have been cut by $100 for both the low-end and high-end stock configurations, bringing pricing down to $999 and $1299 respectively. The new prices on both models are $200 below Apple's standard retail pricing.

Education pricing on the non-Retina 15-inch model remains unchanged at $1699, while the 13-inch Retina MacBook Pro continues to start at $1399 for education customers. The discounted education pricing is available to employees of K-12 schools as well as faculty, staff, students, and parents of students at higher education institutions.

Ha. Yes, lowering the educational price on their lowest spec notebook should really jack up their stock!

ur crazy to spend a grand on a ****ing display
When did this happen? :eek:
It depends what you class as a rip off. As far as I'm concerned a ~$500 dell is a pile of junk. What smart idiot thought putting the intake fan where your knee is would be a good idea?
The difference is, you invest in a mac and you sell it 2 years later and loose around 20% of its value. You invest in any other brand and sell it 2 years later you loose about 80% of its value.
By getting into a regular refresh cycle you can get away with paying around $300 every couple of years for a new mac, as you'd be selling your old one.
