Free iPod Nano with Mac for College Students

Thought I'd pass this along

Sale runs from June 5 to September 16 and applies to MacBook, MacBook Pro, iMac, and Mac Pro purchases. They basically give you a $199 rebate mail-in rebate towards an iPod Video or iPod Nano. You can also get a free printer (up to $100), a discount on the Mac you purchase (student discount), and a Dot Mac account for $30 (normally $100).

I should also note that the latest version of Parallels (VMware equivalent for OS X) runs Windows flawlessly. No Photoshop lag at all, very stable, drag and drop any folders or files between the systems. The next update (3.0) will support DirectX/OpenGL/graphics hardware as well as file extensions (i.e. open a .XLS under OS X and it will open Excel in Windows). If you want to switch or even try OS X but can't leave Windows because of certain apps, now you can.

When is WWDC? And thanks for the tip.

I should know by now that it's always best to wait till the last minute to get something. Like my MacBook Pro. I bought it before they were even manufactured. If I'd have waited some months, the specs would have been much nicer.

June 11 - June 15. Grab an RSS feed over at TUAW if you want daily updates as far as announcements and whatnot goes from WWDC. Engadget is also a good source for up-to-date news.
