    Nope

    The student discount should help at least though.

    Well for Massachusetts students (all residents actually) this w/e, Sat & Sun, purchases under $2.5k will be tax-free.

    Not sure how implemented - whether its a cash back (weeks later) or an automatic point of sale 5% discount.

    So, if you know anyone there, maybe you could get them to buy on your behalf.

    When it was Tax Free in GA last weekend, I purchased a 1420 and Dell told me they charge you the tax first and then refund it to you in about two weeks. I would assume this is the same for MA this weekend.
