    I'm going off to college and decided that I'm going to purchase a zt3000. I'm looking to get as much of a discount as I can. Too my understanding I can get the student discout, use a coupon (such as 100 off) and the mail-in rebate.

    Are there any other ways to get more knocked off the price?
    If I'm going to get the student discount, do I have to order under my name? I currently don't have a credit card to make the purchase so I'll need to use a parents.
    Anything else I should know before making the purchase to get more for my money?

    You would need to order the laptop under your name to qualify for the student discount, outside of the mail-in rebates, coupon codes there are sometimes special promotions such as free shipping or free upgrades but you're not going to get much more outside of that.
