Apple drops MacBook to $899 for students
Just a quick note that the online Apple Store has quietly dropped their white MacBook from $949 to $899 for students, teachers, and faculty members. Some buyers are even seeing pricing as low as $728, according to Engadget.
The white polycarbonate MacBook specs remain at 2.26GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2GB DDR3 memory, 250GB hard drive, SuperDrive, and the NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics card.
Other Macs and accessories seem to have retained their previous student pricing. It's only $50, but if you're an education customer in need of a cheap Mac this is a nice post-holiday gift from Apple.
