how much is your student discount? Is it through your college or does Apple just provide a discount to all university students?

Why do you need a modem?

I'd totally buy one, but I still have my 12" ibook, and I have a brand new 20" iMac being delivered today!! I think they look great, are a good deal, and aren't nearly the letdown I'd been ready for.
