Apple has launched its annual Back to School promotion, through which it offers college students and faculty or staff members at any grade level a free iPod with the purchase of select Macs at education pricing. This year, the company is offering a free 8GB iPod touch—or a maximum rebate of $199 should the purchaser select another iPod model—with the purchase of a new MacBook, MacBook Pro, iMac, or Mac Pro computer. The promotion runs from May 25 through September 7; for more information, see the official Terms and Conditions page.

I took advantage of the promotion last year when I bought a MBP for our college bound daughter. I gave the “free” iPod to my wife for a birthday present.
Everyone’s a winner!
