    I think that each school offers difference discounts you will have to check with the school you are going with

    There are no easy codes to use in Canada or no specific site...I believe you have to talk to your school and they may have a dell rep. with them who can help. Ive heard U of T, Queens, and some others get some discount but you need to call to inquire about it. My sis is going to U of T and I searched all over the net for a place to enter her student ID and get a coupon code, but I got nothing :(

    I believe you have to go to your school's tech shop and order through them. That is assuming they have a relationship with Dell.

    It is not moral to ask other people for their coupon codes. Those discounts weren't for you.

    He's not. He's wondering if schools in Canada have educational discounts.

    Stop spamming the forums just because you're pissed over the compensation for the 8600M GT.

    Man, I'm merely making a point. It's completely up to you whether you feel bad about it. If you don't, well, go right ahead, but I also don't believe it's right for people to feel as though they're entitled to compensation due to something they read on a forum and did not have prior knowledge of when purchasing.

    But enough of that in this thread. If you'd like to continue the discussion, post it over in the 8600M GT thread.
