I noticed that you can only get $50 off the MBA but $100 off a lower priced MBP.

They figure education is so bad these days, that people won't be able to figure it out until AFTER they get the computer and use the Widget.

You want to lug a heavy MBP around campus? If not, you carry a MBA and pay more.

why sell to you at a discount, when there are loads of people willing to pay full price?

Watch out, you're bound to get someone who is going to say that the amount is so small and inconsequential that you should just pay it.

Maybe because an MPB is more suitable for school work, however preferable and stylish an MBA would be.
