We also have limited quantities of a special bundle that includes the Apple MacBook and iPod Touch. The total cost of this package is $1,100.00
The cost of the computer alone is $1050.00 through this trade-up opportunity.
The iPod Touch is not available for sale separately at this time.
Here is a list of the maximum current value of the CAC computers that can be applied toward the purchase of a MacBook, or the MacBook and iPod Touch bundle. These are maximum values that apply only if the computer is in good shape with only reasonable wear.

2006 iBook $200
2006 HP 6125 $200
2005 iBook $100
2005 HP 6110 $100
The value of your current CAC computer can be applied toward the purchase of a new Apple model/bundle and you must pay the difference in cost in order to receive the new Apple MacBook. The new Apple MacBook being offered has the following specifications:
Shell: White Polycarbonate
Processor: Intel Core2 Duo 2.0GHz
RAM: 2GB
Hard Drive: 120GB
Optical Drive: SuperDrive
Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce 9400M

To answer the obvious question: No, you cannot charge the difference to your student bill, you will need to pay with either cash, check or credit card. All payments for this will be handled in Student Financial Services starting on the afternoon of April 6. You must visit the Service Desk first in order to have the value of your computer assessed and for a bill to be created.

Your password has been set to expire at 9 a.m. on April 13 as part of the annual password reset for all university students, faculty and staff. Please login to Bruindata to change your password.
All accounts with passwords that remain unchanged will be locked on Monday, April 13, at 9 a.m., preventing you from using university services. Once this occurs, you will need to contact the IT Service Desk to get your password reset.
Based on the recommendations of our auditing firm and following best practices, we will be changing George Fox login at regular intervals. For details, please refer to the password change policy on the IT website. We need to complete a campus password reset prior to the end of the spring semester.
Password Self-Service Feature
Once you have reset your password, you will be presented with the option to set “security questions” for your account. If you choose not to enter answers at this time, you can later create a self-service password reset option by logging into Bruindata, selecting the “My Data” tab and then “Security Questions.” You will need to answer two security questions from the drop-down list and provide a non-GFU e-mail address to activate this option. If you forgot your password, a temporary password will be sent to your non-GFU e-mail allowing you to log into Bruindata and change your university login password.
Note: See this same message was sent to your university e-mail account regarding the password change process. You are not being asked to send your login information to anyone but rather using the current university password change process that allows the individual to reset their own password.
