It’s Black Friday and that means every retailer in America is throwing out some heavy discounts on popular products. Before you go directly to Apple for your technology needs, check out Amazon.com’s deals.
Apple’s own Black Friday sales have always been the same every year, with no more than $101 off some new Macs. They likely don’t want to dilute their brand (and margins) with deeper discounts, so customers are better off looking at third-party Apple resellers instead. And since almost everyone has shopped at Amazon.com at some point, let’s look at what the popular online store is offering for Black Friday 2010.

I was late seeing this in time for black Friday but I’m glad I looked anyway. Pretty much all of these prices are still the same for cyber Monday which is today.
