If I buy a Macintosh soon, I can take advantage of Apple's restricted rebate
program under which, purchases of certain system configurations entitles the
purchaser to a rebate on the purchase of certain peripherals.
The possibility that attracts me is the Apple CD SC. With the discount that
I can get, plus the rebate, the price seems quite reasonable. But I'd like to
know more first about what I'd be getting for my money?
What software comes with the CD SC? What does "SC" stand for? Any
sample disks? BTW my vendor didn't have anything or anyone that could
tell me any particulars. What interesting disks are available (esp.
for a programmer/scientist/writer...) ? Usefulness? Performance? Etc.?
As long as I'm on the subject, any opinions on the Apple Portrait Display?
Thanks,
Scott
