<p>anyone got it yet? how are the prices for laptops?</p>
<p>so no one's got a catalog either? i was worried b/c they said it would come in early june.</p>
<p>I just got it in the mail today... The laptops really aren't cheaper with them, but the 3 year warranty is a tempting service they'll give if you buy it with them</p>
<p>Don't get their bedding stuff, it's crap</p>
<p>I believe their dell laptops generally come in 2-3 different spec levels. In the years past, they all included a copy of Microsoft Office Professional and 3 years of warranty. The top level is probably in the 2000-2300 range and the middle one is probably in a 1500-1700 range. The specs weren't too impressive (weren't when I saw them last year) but still decent for everyday use. the standard 2GB ram, Core 2 Duo processor (2-2.3 ghz likely), the usually 100-160GB harddrive, DVD burner etc. Screen size is probably a 14in or maybe 15.4.</p>
<p>i'm definitely getting a mac... the duke site has more options plus cheaper laptops than they have on the cd for freshmen...</p>
<p>i think i wanna get the macbook pro which is 2199... if i order it through duke, do ipods still come with it?</p>
<p>idk if i should buy mine from the apple store for education (which has a discount if u are an enrolled student) or the duke site...</p>
<p>The prices everywhere in that catalog seem insane. I got a 3x better laptop (Dell XPS 1530) for only $1100 using one of those online coupon codes. If you want my advice, don't touch the catalog.</p>
