Apple has launched a new promotion for college students and faculty, called Major in Mac, which offers a free iPod nano with the purchase of any new Mac. To take part in the promotion, participants must purchase a qualifying Mac and qualifying iPod on the same sales receipt between now and September 16. While the promotion is aimed at the iPod nano, both nanos and fifth-generation iPods qualify for the promotion, which offers a $199 rebate after purchase. Claims can be made both online and through the mail.

Hopefully they’ll do this in the UK too like they did last year, it’d be perfect.

They seem to do this every year, hopefully the new 6G iPod comes out by next August, so I can get that $200 discount >:)

mdwsta4, You do get $200 off the Macbook Pros price, or $100 off the Macbook, as well as the $199 towards an iPod.
