Buying Apple Products
Hello. I am in/near Los Angeles, Ca. I am a Windows network admin, who must acquire a $7000 assortment of Apple equipment (CPU, monitors, etc) for a new graphics artist. Inasmuch as I have no experience buying Apple products beyond its retail stores, I should ask "those you who know" where I can buy this equipment with the assistance of a sales rep who won't take us to the cleaners. I'd prefer online/delivery.
Thank you.
Mike

It looks like the "street" (no corporate account discount) price at Softchoice is the same as the apple store:

CDW is the same as well:
http://www.cdw.com/shop/products/Apple-Mac-Pro-Xeon-W3565-3.2-GHz-Monitor-none/2735452.aspx?enkwrd=ALLPROD%3a%7cMac%2520Pro%2520MD770LL%252fA%7cAll%20Product%20Catalog
However Zones does come in about $4.50 cheaper:

So basically what the others have said is probably best. Deal directly with Apple for a pennies (or a couple dollars) more it is worth the piece of mind of no middle man. :)
