Mac Cost Break-Down

Okay, so after consulting with many people...I'm pretty much sold on the 1899.99 Mac Book Pro...Here is the cost break down...

MacBook Pro - $1899.99
Apple Remote - $19
Canon Pixma iP4500 - $99.95
16GB iPod Touch - $419.00
Subtotal - $2436.95
After Taxes - $2729.39

Rebates
iPod Touch - $319.00
Canon Printer - $99.95

Mac Related Software
VMWare - $44.95
XP - $130.00
After Taxes - $195.95

Grand Total - $2506.39

Actual Cost of the Laptop
$2506.39 / 1.12 = $2237.85
Minus the value of iPod - $369.99 (@Future Shop)
Minus the value of Printer - $99.95
Actual Cost of Laptop = $1767.90

If I can transfer that old XP license over that would save me another $130.00 (or $145.60 after taxes)! I would feel really ripped off buying another XP license if there is one that I bought that is not in use. I'll place my order next weekend as it is the long weekend.
