| Mac Pricing Matrix: Updated Wednesday, September 8th, 2010 @ 10:34 am |
AppleInsider's Mac Pricing Matrix aims to make it easy for readers to find the lowest price on all of Apple's current generation Mac models. The best prices are highlighted in bold.
The "Discount" column to the far right reflects the amount of savings between Apple's retail price and the lowest price offered on September 8th for that respective model through the company's authorized resellers. The final price factors in any rebates or instant discounts that may be offered by the resellers. Each price is a link that will take you to the reseller's product page for that specific Mac model.
