A positive sign for Apple in the education arena, I just wonder why Apple is announcing it now rather then at one of the their yearly planned announcement events?

It also seems most schools these days are buying laptops vs desktops.

The Mac Mini Core Duo goes for $779 (in the education store), or $120 less. What you don't get is a the 17-inch display, Mighty Mouse, Apple Keyboard, or iSight, but missing are Bluetooth and Apple Remote. Not a bad deal for $120 price difference. Interesting system option to compare to the $999 MacBook if portability isn't an issue or liability.

anybody know what these education systems have in the way of word processing or basic apps preinstalled?

Looks to me that the iMac is exactly the same as the Edu iMac except the Superdrive.
