I think you may be waiting a few days sadly

 

[Tute]

they do offer it in shops. they give you more discount in the shop then you do online 15% off, where as online is 10%.

That's odd.

I went into the Plymouth store today, and was told that they didn't offer any discount of the sort.

 

[Maccy]

It's probably one of those things where some places/staff either do it, don't like doing it or just don't even know about it!

There not shipping for 7 days I thought? I was expecting a 2 week wait for my MBP.

 

[JAMAL]

Its a step back in terms of processing power and connection.

Faster FSB and more cache. Doubt you'll notice any difference.

Each to their own then...



Pour qoi?

EDIT - reading it now you said it made me chuckle for some reason

people are allowed to complain whether they have that product or not,

did you ask them and show them your student campus card?

i just walked into the apple shop and said, you do HE discount? and they said yes and wanted to see my campus card and that was that. i think all apple stores do do HE discount, unless your uni in plymouth isnt in the scheme with that store?

It's not happened yet

I'll just give the Exeter store a go then.

I'm sceptical about the Plymouth store anyway, it's just inside Drake's Circus and calls itself "Stormfront". I assumed it was an Apple store as it only sells Apple products, and is styled like an Apple shop as well.

[Edit] It's listed on the Apple site as a premium reseller. Odd. Doesn't matter - i'll just pop into the Exeter store and talk to them instead.

Went to meadow hall to buy mine. Sold out

 

[RoleyBirkin]

Gonna go for the older White MacBook because...- Looks nicer, IMO

Agree.

I think the new look=pants. Very Dell.

Quick question, if I buy the display-port to VGA cable to hook my MBP up to my HDTV, will this enable me to use my MBP/iTunes as a sort of media center to playback TV shows / movies etc you can buy on iTunes?
