They should!

What is the lowest price out there? For Federal employees?

where would you have them draw the line will?

and this

For example, Catholic Church? yeah, obvious. Wiccan? maybe, but why Wiccan, and not BeerChurch? Where is the line.

Why would they?

There are a lot of churches, but they haven't historically been large purchasers of IT equipment. Some of them are probably still using mimeographs.

or at least Performa 630s.

If you are ordering several computers you may be able to get a discount. There's often a person at Apple Stores who is authorized to make such deals.

everybody should get their own little discount

Lots of organizations get discounts from Apple.
I can get them through Printing Industries of Northern CA.
However, the discount the offer is only AS HIGH AS 8%, and therefore less enticing than ordering from Amazon with a rebate, and avoiding sales or use tax*.

*technically not legal

churches get enough breaks.

i'll stop there so this doesn't get moved to the other side.
