Apple also has a refurb store where you can get good deals on one- or two-generation-old products; they have current models too, but they're usually only discounted about the same as the education discount. For PCs, there are lots of places that sell new-old-stock and refurb. I got a very nice Windows 7 Dell Latitude from thinkgreenpc.com about six months ago (actually via NewEgg) which I put Ubuntu and Linux Mint onto. Amazon, NewEgg, B&H, lots of places have good cheap computers, and some manufacturers have outlets (e.g., Lenovo).
