Nice to get that education discount on Apple gear which is rarely discounted.
I don't remember if I've ever been to ACMA but I recall buying a clone PC fairly cheap at one of the large computer stores in Freemont. I was living in my one bedroom apartment in Pleasanton (is that 'East Bay'?) at that time. I do recall many trips down to Fry's Electronics in Freemont. When I moved to Mountain View it made more sense to visit Fry's in Palo Alto. All closed and just a distant memory.
My wife is still happy with her ancient and slow iMac. I mentioned that she might want a new one but she just shrugged it off.
