New 15 inch pb, with superdrive, max hd, max ram, and extra battery.
A 20gb ipod.
Airport extreme.
HP Deskject 5650 Inkjet printer (150$-99$ with the 50% mail in rebate on the website)
Possibly an isight.
Wireless bluetooth mouse if they come out with it.
I guess im going to use my adc member purchase to its fullest. Did I leave anything important out? Do I really need the applecare plan?

By the way can I buy two ipods?

Just a thought, but if you're getting a current (Ti) 15"...

1) you might want to wait until tomorrow. if something doesn't happen @ MacExpo Paris then go for it.

2) since the Ti doesn't do Airport Extreme, I suggest saving some money and either:

a) buy a refurb/used regular airport station
b) buy a Linksys or similar 802.11B/G switch and save yourself some cash; as much as I like the look of the Apple units, they are NOT worth the extra scratch IMO as they're almost functionally identical to any regular WAP.

Sounds like a plan, just wait til tomorrow for the new AlBooks.

But here's one thing you SHOULDN'T do, max your RAM from Apple. They overcharge MAJORLY and you can get RAM much cheaper by using www.dealram.com

And if using your ADC Discount, make sure you get all the Apple accessories you want & can afford while they're 20% off...I think you can only get 1 iPod, but order 2 and just see what happens.

Also, I'd buy AppleCare for a new 15" AlBook, however I'd either get it through the EDUCATION Discount or from www.smalldog.com as ADC charges the full $349 for AppleCare.

It does appear that he is aware that their may be an announcement tomorrow, a few things indicate this. First, he says "New 15 inch pb", and second he says "Wireless bluetooth mouse if they come out with it." (a device yet to be released). Since he is speaking of an order, this implies a single order. Therefore we see that he is aware of the possibility of an announcement tomorrow.

(okay, too much math and no play makes binary a freak)

Anyways, ya, I would through in the applecare. I have purchased, and needed it for all the computers I have owned in the past. It is a very good idea. (for instance I am about to get my superdrive replaced cus it died, and luckily this is still under applecare).

This may be semantics, but any new 15 pb will probably come stock with an Airport Extreme, so you can knock that off of your list of separate items to be purchased.

Although, if you are doing your adc one-time purchase you should compare the prices. When I got my GhzTi with the adc last year, the discount actually made it cheaper to max out the ram with apple. Go figure, right?

Yes I am aware that they there is probably a 75%+ chance of an update tomorrow.
I should have listed them better.
15 inch al pb.
The airport extreme would be teh base station. I don't know if I should go with a 3rd party 802.11g wireless station.
