It's quite a coincidence that I persuaded a friend of to buy exactly that
laptop _less than a day ago_. I was shocked to see that it cost only GBP
699 because Apple are expensive vendors, at least based on word of mouth
reputation. As I still qualify as a student, I even considered buying one
myself.

My colleague at the Faculty purchased one a while back and I am pretty sure
he got a discount. I noticed an 0800 number in the Web site yesterday (go
to installments option at the bottom), so it's definitely worth giving them
a ring... provided you can end up talking to a real person and not listen
to recordings and press buttons. Since sales (Cha-ching!) are involved, I
doubt you'll get ant of the latter.

Hope it helps,

Roy
