The staff at PC World told me not to buy a Mac because "you can't
design websites on a Mac"
I'm the wrong person to say that to.

I think I was the person who raised this matter.
PC World and Dixons (and Currys) are now one firm. They have shops
at several, but not all, airports. Certainly at Gatwick North, and
Heathrow 3 and 5. These were selling Macs for around 15 to 20% lower
prices than you can get from an Apple store. You can buy to take
with you, or to have sent to your home, or to collect on the way
back, though the best iMac they do was only available to be
delivered to your home. They do not have, and won't get you, any of
the specials (faster internal discs, more RAM, etc). The PC World in
Heathrow 5 actually has a little Apple Store and people who seem to
know a little, which is a change, but I think Sam's warning that
he'd never heard anyone at PC World who knew what they were talking
about is something to keep in mind.
I have not flown since the iPad was launched here, but will at the
weekend. I'll try to remember to tell the list what prices they have.
Clearly, since the machine can be delivered to your home, you don't
need to leave the EU to get these prices. But I'm not sure if you
can get them with a domestic flight.

Good question! I'm flying from Heathrow in July; I assume there
will be a Dixons (or whatever) there, too???
