University - Macbook / iMac (lol)

I've had my macbook since wednesday now, got the middle spec with a wireless mouse and the 3yr waranty, saved a lot with the education discount which was gooood. Really liking OSX and I think I made the right decision about portability, problem is though now I'm really compelled to buy 2gb of ram, not because I think it's lacking but just because I want it. haha.
 
Is £656.83 the cheapest price you can get with Student Discount for the low end Macbook ? If so would it make more sense to buy a Macbook for £700 which includes Mac Office?

Think it's about £601 for the low end macbook with HE discount (some Unis)
 
I personally wouldn't be happy with my MacBook as my only computer if I didn't have a nice external screen. It's not the MB screen's glossyness that bothers me, rather that it's clearly a cheap screen and the contrast and viewing angles are poor :(

MacBook on a nice 20 inch plus screen at home and on its own for occasional portability is a winner.

Might try and ring up then,do you know what kind of identification I need?I haven't got anything to prove I am a student tho.:confused::(
 
How would I use that to prove I'm a student if I placed an order over the phone?
When I was in the store in meadowhall they used my ucas application number on the sheet and stuff like that, so you'd need that to hand.

I'm planning on getting a Dell 2007wfp, my dad can get claim VAT returns so that's another saving lol, then I'm all set, loving OSX, great decision. :)
 
i ordered my 12' powerbook about 4 years ago when i was at school. i just went through higher education, said i was at uni and they never checked.
 
If it's for Uni then defintley a Macbook, an iMac would be a pain in the a** with not being able to move it anywhere!
