Purchasing from the SOE Custom Store
If you are interested in purchasing a Macintosh laptop from the SOE Custom Store, send an email indicating your interest and containing your first and last names, your UAF e-mail ID (e.g., fsxxx) and your UAF student identification number (e.g., 30011111) to Skip Via at ffsv@uaf.edu. If you are an SOE student, faculty or staff member in good standing, you'll receive an e-mail confirmation and you may then access the store using the link below:
--> SOE Custom Store <--
IMPORTANT! Click
on the "Recommended Systems" icon (see image at
left) at the top right of the store page to learn about the recommended laptop
options. If you do not click on this icon, you will not be presented
with the discounted bundles. During the purchase process, you
will be asked to create an account with Apple. A purchase confirmation letter
will be sent to the e-mail address that you provide.
Do not delete or decrease any of the included items from your purchase. Doing so will negate the discount and may end up actually costing you more. It may also cause your system to fall below the laptop requirements stated above. You will have the opportunity to add items (e.g., more RAM) during the purchase without jeopardizing the initial discount.
If you have any questions about these computers or the process, please feel free to contact Don Peterson (ffdtp@uaf.edu) or Skip Via (ffsv@uaf.edu) or stop by the lab at Old U Park. Also, see Which Computer Should I Buy? for a more indepth discussion of suitabillity of various laptops for your needs.
