Try here.
If your lad qualifies,you should be able to get him a discount which i think is about 15%.
Apart from that,Apple pretty much price-fix throughout the world.
I got my iMac and MacBook Pro locally having checked prices in the US and A & beyond.
There were very small savings to be had so I bought at home.

Consider buying from John Lewis. The price will be the same as everywhere else, but you get a 2 year warranty as opposed to the standard 1 year offered by Apple.
Apple deals ...
... I bought my son a MacPro (?) lappie a couple of months ago, got the student discount and they were doing good deals on printers (i.e. free) and 3 year warranty reduced to £50. Interestingly they offered the same price in store as on the net.

Never stopped to consider the 'blackmail element' of this, why not any PC ?

Using an OS X-only program, maybe, that hasn't been ported to Windows?

Don't know about architecture, but there are several industries where Macs have long been traditionally used. Video editing, sound recording and graphic arts for example.
It may be a concious choice to teach students on the sort of equipment that they are likely to encounter in industry.
Also Macs are, and always have been, far superior

Thanks for the replies, it seems that he can get a student discount and purchase via the uni.
