0% interest deal on Mac Pro (not 'Book') anywhere?

Hi,

I want to purchase the entry level Mac Pro: http://store.apple.com/uk/configure/MC560B/A

...but I want a deal where I can offset a full repayment, without having to pay more than a small admin fee, and perhaps a small deposit.

The best deal I have found is with Andertons.co.uk, who buy through Apple's official distribution network: £1999.00 9 months 0% interest, but with a 40% deposit (£799.60) http://www.andertons.co.uk/apple-computers/pid19218/cid608/apple-mac-pro-quad-core-124-one-28ghz-quadcore-124-3gb-124-1tb.asp

Can anyone find me a better deal?

Your help is much appreciated.

Thanks :)

    Use a 0% on purchases credit card perhaps, which will give you 15 months interest-free AND Section 75 protection should something go wrong.

    Thanks, m5rcc.

    I was declined a credit card from both M&S and Tesco last year. I foolishly applied with both at relatively the same time.

    Now I am a home-owner, I guess my chances at obtaining credit are better. Unfortunately, I don't believe I'm able to apply to Tesco and M&S again. And they are the only ones whose criteria I meet.

    Why not post about this on the credit card branch?

    Capital One are promoting their no-interest card with a ten pound bonus, and their requirements don't seem to be too strict.

    I'll look into that.

    I'm looking for all sorts of options. Store finance would be great. But credit cards are definitely better.
