A good news for students, faculty and staff members of educational institutes in India. You guys can buy Apple Macbook laptops for 12% discount till August 30, 2008.
I brought Apple Macbook Pro 4 months back and I am really happy with my decision. In facts its one of the best decision I took which boost my productivity many folds.
If you are a person who is thinking about switching to Mac, then this is best time as current Macbook comes with Leopard, which allows you to install Windows XP/VIsta in dual-boot environment.
Here are new prices for macbook series laptops…
Unfortunately this discount offer is not available for Macbook AIr.
Here is the list of institutes. Check if your college/institute name is listed in it. You may find any college in your city and then a friend in that college to help you make this purchase with discount. 
To make a purchase, fill up this contact form and somebody from SystemMatrix will get back to you. Or you can also call 1800-425-4646 (MTNL/BSNL) or 080-2574-4646 (all phones) or SMS “SALES” to 54646.

MacBook is rumored to get a hardware uplift in its models this month.. May be this move is to clear out the older stock ? Pretty much makes sense logically..
