A poster mentioned that average users pay retail price. Do they really?
As far as Apple student prices, more than a year ago there were local stores
selling SEs for about $200 more than the local student price. I don't know
about the LC or Classic, but I would expect things to be about the same:
the cheapest street prices about 10% more than student prices. (On my
street, comparing my school's prices, anyhow :-).)
