A new post for a new year

[hippieatheart]

It's funny how I decide to make a post, and have all these things in my mind to post about, but then immediately upon clicking "Post an Entry," they evaporate from my head.

Interesting times this new year. Some good, some bad, but interesting nonetheless.

Tech students, staff (aka me) and possibly alumni can get a discount at the Apple Education website. Worth checking out. I could let you buy it through me if need be.

Oh, and allow me to strongly suggest AppleCare. It's a bit extra, but very much worth it. We buy it for every single mac we get at the office, and we buy a lot of them.

Price is the same at the Apple Education website as at MacMall, plus MacMall is offering some other deals to go along with it. Thanks for the offer, though. I didn't think I'd even be able to see the educational price to check it, but it wasn't a problem.

And yeah, I plan on getting applecare eventually, but maybe waiting a few months to spread out the costs a bit. Per Apple's website, you can buy at any time during the 1st year.

Have you looked at refurbished ones maybe?

[hippieatheart]

I just did, and the savings aren't all that significant. At least not enough to get a refurbished one over a new one. But thanks for the idea. :)

I didn't know it was the very same dog! Oh, this is positively meant to be. This is so wonderful for you guys!

Yep...same dog. She's pretty frickin' adorable.
