[quote StingMe]Also, keep sales tax in mind - you'll pay it on both the Mac and the iPod...
Twisted logic. Assume an 8% sales tax (only 5% where I live, but I know there are a lot of 8% jurisdictions).
On a mid-model 2.4ghz Edu MacBook tax would be $100 + $24 on the Touch.
End cost a/r @ Apple would be $1224 for both the MB and iPod.
Over at Amazon same MacBook is $1225 after $75 rebate BUT no free iPod.
