Apple knows that their products arfe going to be purchased. I'm surprised that there was no discounting of the iPod Classic. It doesn't make up the lion's share of their sales, and I was looking forward to getting a 160. This is just a little something for the faithful; it’s not meant to sway people.

No, it's probably not a good enough sale to get you to buy one now, but if you were already going to buy one, it's nice to get some kind of discount. And if you're really upset about it, just wait til tomorrow and buy your Apple products full price. I don’t see what everyone is complaining about.

Meanwhile, I heard Jobs is having the hardware on the front doors of his mansion replated with 14k instead of 18k gold in order to bring you this exclusive sale.
