So, first thing this morning, I get an email from my buddy Greg Swann (here too) with regard to my last entry.

Can you believe it? A $500 price drop (20%) less than two days after I buy it? To add insult, Apple apparently gives discounts to teachers, so I could have received an additional $200.

I’m not sure yet about the teacher discount, and I emphasize they have absolutely no obligation to reimburse me for the price reduction, but I called to very politely inquire and they indicated that when it’s within two weeks they will honor any reduced price. Very reasonable and good business.
