[BNM] What's the best buying approach?

[Andrew Mann]

Not sure if i could afford the support costs with a PC :)

Looking to buy a Mac Pro and a MacBook Pro. we are a ltd company.

Rather than buying with cash and not getting any interest on the  
money, it seems a better option to lease the kit and be able to write  
the whole lot off as an expense on a month to month basis.

Stickers!! , that swings it :)

On the pro range of kit (mbp, mac pro, xsan, os x server, logic pro,  
final
cut pro) apple can give up to a 20% discount
On the consumer range (mb, imac, etc) its 10%

If you're buying a beefy spec system (£4000+)it might be worth signing  
up to
the ADC  membership & getting the hardware discount that way + you get
access to software, beta & final, plus OS X.
