<p>Are there any discounts on laptops that Berkeley offers? I want to buy a thinkpad, but they are really expensive, does berkeley offer any discounts on thinkpads? I checked on the berkeley bookstore online but it seems to be outdated and it only lists 2 laptops</p>
<p>Can you get student discounts for BART?</p>
<p>You are better off buying a computer on sale at a large store.</p>
<p>BART tickets are like discounted $2 off a $45 one-not that much.</p>
<p>Check out scholar's workstation. Discounts usually go through them.</p>
<p>Yeah, any student discounts would be at The Scholar's Workstation.</p>

<p>There are "sales" during welcome week also, and a larger variety available then. Also, check out the computers while you are at CalSO; they may have had specials at that time also (don't remember for sure.)
Prices on campus during welcome week are fairly competitive with major stores; I actually bought my printer for less on campus than what Best Buy was advertising.</p>
<p>Considering Best Buy overprices many of the electronics I had purchased in the past, I can see why...</p>
