My wife just bought me a Macbook Pro from the Apple website. Here is the one she got:

13-inch: 2.3 GHz
2.3GHz dual-core
Intel Core i5
4GB 1333MHz
320GB 5400-rpm1
Intel HD Graphics 3000
Built-in battery (7 hours)2

On top of that, she got a Government Discount (100 bucks off) as well as they through in an HP Wireless Printer. Walked away paying $1200 for both. If that isn't good enough, we also get a rebate on the Printer for the $100 bucks, so we are getting that thing free!!!

Boy I LOVE APPLE!!!

What do you have to do to get the discount.

I talked to a rep on the phone and she asked if I were a student or taught. I said no my wife works for the Government and she inputed where we lived and what she did and said were were eligible for it.

Thanks Irish Rose!!!! I am sure I will. The waiting just sucks LOL.

I know what you mean about the wait. Last year when I got my iPhone 4, the 7 day wait time seemed like an eternity, lol. Let us know how you like it when it arrives.

Fear not... help is here... lots of Apple-knowledgeable folks around here...

Couldn't agree with you more, Hank. TiPb is my #1 go to site for everything related to Apple products. I've learned most of what I know about Jailbreaking from here and I know I'll learn a lot more in the future too. :)

Usually when I get stuff using the Federal Employee discount I usually show my IRS badge. But congrats anyway! :D You'll love it. :) Ahhh I miss the first unboxing of my 15" MacBook Pro... :(

I am thinking about buying a 15" MacBook Pro soon. I am unsure if I should go with a refurbished or a new one. I am excited, just waiting till I figure out my future so I know much I can spend on one :)

I would go for a new one man. I was in the same boat too on what to get but going new is the better choice, imo.
