Apple Specialist Dealers Announce Huge Pre-Holiday Sale

November 20, 2008 – San Diego, CA – The Apple Specialist Marketing Co-op (ASMC) is proud to announce the first annual Apple Specialist Pre-Holiday Sale. More than 130
independent Apple Specialist Reseller locations in the US and Canada are participating in this event. Buyers will receive up to $200 of useful gifts with each new Mac in
addition to special holiday pricing on both new and recently discontinued models. A full list of participating locations is available at www.applespecialist.com/sale.

“This is the biggest sales event in Apple Specialist history and we’ve pulled out all the stops,” said Kevin Langdon, ASMC Executive Director. “We have very strong support
from Apple, Brenthaven, Canon, Epson, HP, Mac Video Training and STM Bags – overall we have the best, most aggressive deals on a new Mac you can get anywhere.”

Buyers can receive a free color inkjet printer (up to a $99 value, after mail-in rebate), a free “Quickstart Your Mac” training disc (a $40 value) and, with new Mac portables,
a free high quality laptop case (up to an $85 value). And that’s on top of the special pricing deals that will only be made available to buyers at the event.

“Depending on which items you buy, you can save hundreds of dollars at this event,” said Langdon. “This is truly an unprecedented effort by the Apple Specialists to offer
their loyal customers something extra during these tough times.”

Not all locations will be participating for all three days, please see www.applespecialist.com/sale for specific location details. Also, prices and
participation may vary by location. The AppleCare Protection Plan may be required to qualify for some offers. All offers valid while supplies last. Some offers require
manufacturer mail-in rebates. All offers expire no later than end of business on Sunday, November 23, 2008.

“Apple Specialists provide the complete, one-stop solution for all their clients’ Macintosh product and service needs,” Langdon said. “Apple Specialists don’t just sell
boxes – we consult with our clients and design custom computing solutions to fit their specific requirements. And this weekend we have the very best deals in North America, too.”
