Well a little sooner then expected I was able to order my Macbook Pro. I found a great deal on one on Ebay that also had a rebate which made it cheaper than if I had used my education discount. I was told it would ship by the end of the month which makes sense they ship from Apple on Feb. 15th. Here is a link to the auction http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=5862772169
