Default Apple Planning a Big Black Friday Something

http://store.apple.com/us/browse/ca...?mco=MjgxODY5OA

How many of you saw this in your e-mail yesterday?

I don't know what exactly they're planning (I mean, they'll never call it a "sale."  Apple doesn't do "sales."), but it might be worth checking out your local (or online) Apple Store on Friday just to see what they're offering.  I think I've hit my Apple quota as far as purchases this year (new iPhone, new MacBook Pro, 2 TB Drobo) but I'll still check it out.   You never know what elese might catch the old eyeball.  Anyone else planning on doing some big time shopping Friday?

I usually buy my dot Mac (oh yeah, it's Mobile Me now - blech!) subscription renewal on Black Friday, although last year it wasn't offered. If it's offered again this year, I'll renew now - otherwise I'll wait until my renewal is up (in March - thanks to the 3 free months subscription we got) and buy from Amazon.

Also looking to buy an Airport Express. I can normally buy at the Navy Exchange and save 5% on taxes. If they offer it on BF so that it's cheap enough with taxes to be cheaper than buying at the NEX without taxes then I'll get it.

My Macbook is only 1.5 years old and my Mini only 7 months old so no computer replacements for me.

I'm getting to the "day of reckoning" myself as far as .Mac goes and it's time for me to wrestle with the decision to renew it for a few days like I do every year. Of course, in the last few years I've wrestled with it up to the due date and then found out that it had renewed while I was deciding, so who knows :-)
