PC World already offer a discount on Macs (including the MacBook and MBP), abeit not on Orange.

Old news - already there 

Check ebuyer.com. They have a macbooks available on a 2 year orange contract for only £25/m. Quite unbelievable and I am on the edge of getting one myself. Cheaper than buying the laptop over 2 years and getting 600mins phone on top.

Ironic 

That in my experience the least reliable data dongle i've ever used with a Mac is the Orange one.... you can't have Airport turned on at the same time, it creates about 20 different connection protocols that System Prefs ask you individually if you'd like to configure (as it does with any 'new' connection) - deep joy!

If Vodafone offered it, that'd be a different story!

Orange MacBook 

This isn't new. France Telecom (aka Orange) has been offering Macbooks with Internet contracts for at least the last year.
