新机器的购买需要交押金，几个月后购机本人带机器验证过之后才退还押金，估计将来学生机就很难搞出来了
Important Announcement -- Revised Program Scheme
Dear students, colleagues & alumni,
The first round of the "HKUST Notebook/Desktop Ownership Program 2007" is now well behind us. It is good to see that many of you have enjoyed this once-in-a-year special offers by purchasing a notebook computer for your own use. Nevertheless it is also sad to find that there are increasingly more abuses of this program for profit-making purpose.
This definitely deviates from the objective of this annual program, which is to make available attractive and affordable computer offers for the University community at large to facilitate their learning, teaching and research activities. As a result, in the past week ITSC has undergone an internal review with our senior management as well as the vendors, and have now come up with a revised program scheme with immediate effect to address the issue.
Below is a highlight of the major changes:
1. For all new notebook computer purchases, on top of the program price, customers are now required to provide an additional upfront deposit at the time of ordering.
2. Notebook customers are required to bring back their purchased notebook computer in person for on-campus ownership verification during 4-8 Dec 2007 or 8-12 Jan 2008. The machine's serial number will be checked against the vendor's database. The exact time and venue will be announced at "http://www.ust.hk/itsc/cop" by Nov 30.
要求购买了笔记本的用户在2007 年11月4－8 或2008/1/8－12，由本人将笔记本拿到校园去认证。机器的序列号将按照商家的记录核对。 具体的时间地点将于11月30号前在http://www.ust.hk/itsc/cop 公布。
3. The upfront deposit will only be refunded to you provided that there is no problem with the ownership verification check. Refund of the deposit will be arranged by PCCW in 4-6 weeks time (for credit card payment) or in 6-8 weeks time (for EPS payment).
4. Different notebook models may carry different upfront deposit, but in general they are classified into 4 different tiers, ranging from $1,000 to $4,000. For details on the deposit amount, please refer to our updated program web pages.
要求额外交一笔保证金，大概是1000-4000
5. Bank-in cash payment will no longer be accepted. You can only pay by: (a) EPS, (b) credit card, or (c) installment via BOC/BEA credit card account. Please be reminded that you can also make use of phone ordering service to avoid long queue.
For details on the revised scheme, please refer to the updated program web site at:

Meanwhile please note that phone ordering service will temporarily be suspended for making the changes, and service will resume at 9am on Aug 28 (Tue).
Finally, users are once again reminded that reselling your ordered notebook computer within the first 6 months for profit-making purpose is strictly prohibited. PCCW reserves the right to claim those offenders the difference between the market price and the special program price.
最后，再一次提醒用户，在头6个月转卖笔记本牟利是严格禁止的。PCCW 保留对违反者追缴优惠销售价与市场价之间差价的权利。。
We pretty understand the new measures may bring along some inconvenience to you, and we appreciate your kind understanding in this matter.
