Very cool find, and an interesting development, if it is to be considered one.

I work for the Tribune corporation, and all Tribune employees have access to the special Tribune Apple Store, and we can get discounts on Apple stuff too. I mean I agree that it's a good thing in general with Freescale, but it's not a particularly unique situation. Any company of any decent size can get their own personalized Apple Store.

Good..Apple should take forever to ship their purchased products for payback Turnabout is fair play.

About the same discount as education. USD$224 cheaper for the stock 17"PB
Wonder if it chaps Freescale's butt that it's employees might all want IBM-fabbed G5s. |

This is no big deal - these are the exact same discounts I get as an employee at the company where I work. Apple has quite a few of these custom stores.

If you replace "freescale" in the link with other company names, you can get to their EPP pages. Names like cox, tribune, sbc, and adobe work. Apparently SBC employees get to pay more than anyone else. Also, if you work for microsoft, you've got your own EPP page: http://www.apple.com/eppstore/microsoft

The discounts are pretty good, and it is clear that certain companies get larger discounts than others. If you notice, even Applecare is discounted in certain "company" stores.

Ok, what is the difference for the new 15" powerbook on student developer discount vs regular education? Or i guess what is the price rather. Trying to decide if its worth it.
