I was supposed to pick up my $699 Macbook today but the rebate had expired 11/1. Then I noticed they have a new special: the new MC207LL/A Macbook, with 7h battery (Apple's claim), for $999 - $200 rebate + tax. Click here.
This is a great deal, the same Macbook sells for $999 in Apple's store.
Of course, you can wait for refurbs at Apple, but they will most likely be the older models.

It's actually real. Well, I haven't picked up my unit yet but I had my brother go to the store and check it out and he talked to one of the employee and he verified that it's a real deal. Only downside to this deal is that rebate is not a check, it's a prepaid-visa card. Anyone had problem with this kind of rebate before? I hope not....
I hope you can reply to my message before I go pick it up today.... Does this mean I can sign up for MC membership today and buy something - get receipt - and use this for 5% off TODAY? Let me know if you think this would work. I'd love to get 5% more off this baby. =)

FWIW, keep in mind the new model doesn't include firewire anymore and also does not support the Apple Remote either. In the past, it had a firewire port and although it did not include an Apple Remote, you could purchase one from Apple and use it with the Macbook.

nah lol u can't use same day
I was thinking...I'm not going to risk my $200 rebate for 5% discount(about $50). Who knows...they can argue 5% discount invalidates the rebate (even though there is nothing on the rebate form about this). I've heard too many bad stories about rebates maybe it's not worth all this. =)

Its not a risk if the T&C doesn't explicitly prohibit it, and there is nothing in the rebate form that prohibits it.
