dealnews LLC today announced dealmac/edu, a news site for the unique buying needs of K-12 teachers and higher education students, faculty, and staff. dealmac/edu is a companion to dealmac™, the Web's leading news source for Macintosh deals.
While many campus computer stores sell specially priced "academic" versions of popular software titles, few students or faculty know that mail-order resellers compete on price for those exact same academic versions, typically at much lower prices. dealmac/edu covers such price wars, as well as hardware sold at an academic discount and products and services targeted at academics or educational institutions.
dealmac/edu's interface is modeled after industry-leader dealmac, itself based on the customizable phews™ engine. Complete contact and pricing information is presented within an intuitive, single-page format that guides users to concise categories. Users can also perform free-text searches against the site archive and participate in popular, active message boards.
We've checked out the site and it is indeed full of cool pricing news for the educational market. Stop by now and check out dealmac/edu.
