    I am looking at the 1700 or 2000 for a discount of 200-400 dollars. For the 1700 1500ish would be good and 2000 1800ish. I am just asking for anyone who found a deal. Macmall would be the place I am looking at.

    I'm looking at the Apple Store. 15" 2.66 is 1599, 2.53 is 1349, and a 17 inch 2.66 anti-glare is 1739. Those are some really great prices. I believe if you have an education account, you would save an extra hundred or so...

    Also, these come with the FULL one year apple warranty.

    whoops...sorry, didn't see i5. Yeah, that would make a big difference.

    I don't think you can find that kind of discount until the next refresh.
