Amazon offers $35 off Mac OS X \"Tiger\" pre-orders (Updated)
Tipsters have recently noted that Amazon.com is offering a $35 rebate on all pre-orders of Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger (single license version), reducing the cost from $129.99 down to $94.99. Additionally, the online retailer is offering $50 Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger Family Pack, which allows users to install the operating system on up to 5 Macintosh computers. According to Amazon, only purchases made between Jan. 9 and May 31, 2005 qualify for the discount. Further details and a printable copy of the rebate are available here.
Update: It appears that, for unknown reasons, Apple has once again asked Amazon to disable Mac OS X Tiger pre-orders. Amazon has also removed the associated rebate info.

I'm there!
Education pricing is better, but the rest of us are unlikely to do better than $94.95 (and free shipping too).
And with software, I'm hoping Apple can get sufficient quantities to all sources pretty quickly anyway.

How much will the education discount be?
Edu pricing on OS X is typically $50 off, or $79 (and Apple too has free shipping).
EDIT: $60 off, equals $69! Even better... (See below.)
(Check out some of Apple's edu software prices, too... sometimes you pay less than half price! Like Logic Express for $99 I seem to recall.)
$50-$79 off and it's instant. No need to mail it in like Amazon. I'll stick with Apple's rebate.
Currently, it's $69 for Panther. I'd expect the same for Tiger.
