Did you miss the specs? It includes the video card with 128MB of VRAM, and a 5400 RPM hard drive. A PowerBook with the same specs on the education store is $2,434. And the shipping is free and there's no tax. How much is tax, like 250 bucks? This looks to be a pretty sweet deal, I'd definitely jump on it if I didn't already have a PowerBook

That and he specifically said "for those of you without a student or ADC discount"...

BTW, tax on my machine was about $117 for that machine. However, I purchased mine with an ADC discount so that one would be a bit more. Probably in the neighborhood of $140 not $250 Anyway, if it's new (I didn't check out the link) and a legit deal than it sounds good... thanks for posting it!
