    hey all, I was just browsing around the dell site and saw "alumni" as an option in the dropdown menu for student registration. :eek:

    could I really have gotten an "alumni discount"? if so, can I get it retroactively, even though I've already ordered (and it's already been shipped, but not yet paid for - bought via preferred account)?

    not sure if it matters anyway, since I'm not sure I can even still access my .edu email, but I was curious, if anyone knows.

    but do they really give alumni a discount? I guess I could always call customer service, eh? :p

    mea culpa. just read the rules and saw I shouldn't have asked this (maybe the alumni question is more legit, I dunno). mods feel free to delete or lock :eek:

    *takes spanking and remembers to read the rules all the way down next time*
