By AppleInsider Staff
Published: 12:00 PM EST (09:00 AM PST)
Apple on Monday kicked off its Cyber Monday sale, leaving much to be desired. Meanwhile, the company's resellers continue push the envelop on Mac pricing, knocking hundreds off of new Macs while lopping another $10 off Office 2011 for Mac and $60 off VMWare Fusion 3.0.
Apple's Cyber Monday Sale
Though not much to write home about, Electronista offers a rundown of Apple's Cyber Monday sale, which offers between $5 and $40 off a dozen of so third-party accessories like speakers, headphones, iPad stands and musical keyboards.
MacBook Airs
By teaming up with Apple authorized reseller MacMall, AppleInsider is proud to offer what it believes are the best prices hands down on MacBook Airs, combining exclusive 2% off coupons with the reseller's already reduced pricing for instant discounts of up to $110 on the 13-inch models and $81 on the 11-inch models.
Both the 2% discount coupon and MacMall's Cyber Monday pricing are instant savings, meaning no rebates are required and the prices you see on the seller's website -- and in the price guide below -- are the prices you pay. The combined promotions offer the 1.40GHz 11-inch 64GB MacBook Air for $950.59 ($50 savings), 1.40GHz 11-inch 128GB MacBook Air for $1,117.19 ($81.81 savings), 1.86GHz 13-inch 128GB MacBook Air for $1,205.39 ($93.61 savings), or a 1.86GHz 13-inch 256GB MacBook Air for $1,489.59 ($109.41 savings).
The exclusive AppleInsider coupon is activated when using the links in this article or the price guide, below, only. [Please note that during the process of adding the MacBook Air to your MacMall shopping cart and proceeding to checkout, it may appear as if the 2% discount falls off. It will however reappear on the final checkout page before you confirm your order.]
Other Macs
Meanwhile, MacConnection continues to offer the lowest prices on the 13-inch white MacBook ($150 off), MacBook Pros (up to $240 off), iMacs (up to $180 off) and Mac minis (up to $100 off). MacMall is extending the deepest discounts on Mac Pros (up to $500 off) and B&H Photo now has the lowest price on Apple's 27-inch LED Cinema Display ($48 off):

The first five printers to support Apple's AirPrint wireless printing protocol for iOS devices -- all of which are made by HP -- were popular items on Black Friday at Amazon. Since then, B&H Photo has slashed their prices on each of the models and currently offers the largest savings across the board. The reseller, however, is currently out of stock of all five models, meaning new orders will not ship until B&H restocks. As such, Amazon remains the best positioned to ship the printers immediately at the steepest discounts.
Office 2011 for Mac and VMWare Fusion 3
For Mac Software, Amazon has lopped another $10 off Microsoft Office for Mac Home & Student edition, selling copies for just $79.99, a savings of $40 and the lowest price we've seen. At the same time, VMWare has discounted direct downloads of Fusion 3 to $39.99 from $79.99 while MacMall is offering a rebate that brings the retail boxed version to just $17.99 (a $52 savings).
