    In general, you get 10% off Apple laptops.

    Try on the Apple Education store online.... Don't get me wrong but I think I got 14 pect discount on that. Funny thing that... We get a better discount then UCD!

    Over heard talk of this in LG12. Supposedly the Trinity-Apple partnership store never works, but one can just use the UCD one and just specify TCD when actually ordering.

    I know that when I was researching the topic it said that you would be asked for your student ID and email but when I ordered online I wasn't asked.
    I think it is only if you order by phone that you get asked....:)
