Buying by phone is cheapest, as they give you a small discount. You can pay with bank transfer if you like.

080-330-8877

The OS is multi language regardless of where you buy it.

I'm pretty sure the rules are different here. Everyone gets the same discount as far as I know. About 5%.

Hey I just got mine delivered last week. Just give their number a call and ask for Cathy Choi she speaks great English. (080 330 8877 option 4, extension 41036). If you work at a public school you should get the same discount as the students.

It's an insanely bad time to get a macbook these days; the dollar won thing makes them so over priced.

Thanks for that info....I thought the OS was multi-language and I'm also planning on getting a Mac soon. OS is no different if I buy an iBook though, right? Thanks for your help.
