One thing just popped into my head while reading this post:

I have bought a SE/30 through educational discount (40 % here
in Sweden, although lowered recently) and am very happy with
it. Of course a mac is not REQUIRED here since we have free
access to several rooms of macs, but it sure helps :')

I would NEVER EVER in a billion years buy a computer at the
"recommended list price" (these prices are about two or three
times higher here than similar in the USA) since I couldn't
afford it. The high-charging resellers would earn nothing by
limiting university discount sales, in my opinion. Hell, If
I hadn't gotten my mac that cheap, I wouldn't have bought that
mouse pad from them :')
