If you're an Apple fan, you might remember that a few months ago, Apple dropped the price of their Aperture photographic workflow software drastically after releasing the much-improved version 1.1. Now, this would have been a bit galling for those who had bought the original version at the much higher price (as I did), but Apple---rather splendidly, in my view---offered a rebate for the price difference (more or less) to registered users of Aperture 1.0.
So I filled in the rebate form as soon as it was posted and waited for the voucher to come in. I received it this week, so I now have a handsome £130 e-voucher to blow spend wisely on Apple's online store. I'm like a kid in a sweet shop...

I've been considering a new MacBook and have been really impressed by their pricing. Graphics drivers and specs still seem to be an issue though...(I run AutoCad).

There's not a whole lot you can get from the Apple Store for £130 unless you're talking accessories. If you don't already own an iPod you could grab a 2GB Nano I guess.
I wonder if Apple will rebate the people who must be gnashing their teeth at the jaw dropping price change in Shake recently. 
It went from around $3000 to $400. I'd be crawling up the walls if I was in that situation.

Splee: Well, I managed to only overspend by £7 or so in the end.
