As we all wait to see what kind of Black Friday deals Apple.com will post in the morning, resellers of the company’s products are already doing some deep discounting of their own in advance of Cupertino.
AppleInsider has posted an extensive chart outlining early Black Friday deals from Apple resellers, including sales at both MacConnection and MacMall who were the first to make their sales public. MacMall is offering instant rebates on Mac products, while many of the MacConnection savings are in the form of mail-in rebates.
