Basically just like the title says...Where'd UPS or FedEx say it shipped from?

Just curious.

Well that's promising. I ordered my quad-core 3.2 with a 5870 on the 27th and my order still says "Prepared for Shipment".... It's been oscillating between that and "Not Yet Shipped" for 3 days now.

But, since I live in Texas, it sounds like it won't take long to get here once it eventually ships :)

I got tired of waiting for a change in order status so I cancelled the order. :o
I'll reorder the damn thing once the backlog is worked out. All no-base specs show a 3-5 biz day ship.

I wish you could buy customs at the store... seems like it'd be easy since all the CPU's are on daughter cards.

Totally agree.............. called my local store and all they said was they could order it for me. Big woop!

They had base Quads and 8's.

I live in Austin. My 12-core shipped on Monday from Irving, I got it Tuesday. I chose the basic Ground Shipping as well.

I order my hexacore on the 30th, with a notice from apple that it was ready to ship on the 1st, arriving on the third. I thought that was really fast. Then, no tracking information until last night. It ends up it wasn't picked up until this morning. Now it shows shipping from Irving TX and arriving on the 7th.

This after I changed my whole schedule for today, rescheduling a lot of things for next Tuesday...Sucks.:mad:

Not always.... some have been shipped directly from China (base models BTW, CTO does get it's final assembly/customization performed in the US). This always seems to happen when there is a supply shortage, such as just after a new product release has started shipping (like now).

I just got a status update from Apple... they said my order was unexpectedly delayed and now I won't get mine until Sept 13-17...... what the hell?

Anyone experience something similar to this?

12-core shipped first from China. It was damaged, so it was shipped to PA (probably fixed and shipped back out as a refurbed machine.)

New replacement shipped overnight from Fort Worth, TX, and arrived in fine condition.

Are there still a lot of backlogs or does it depend on what version you get?

Mine shipped from Irving, TX and it is currently stuck in FedEx vehicle ready for next business day delivery. Ill get it on Tuesday.

Never fails, when you highly anticipate something in the mail you can bet that it will be a holiday weekend and it will arrive after the holiday.

Mine is shipping from Irving TX and the last update was Sept 11 at 5am saying in transit in Hutchens TX, but why havent I seen a new update yet?

I can see why it was not over the weekend, but shouldnt there be one by now? Mine is going to MA.

Yes, definitely call them. If you have ordered other things with the Mac Pro as well, there might be one product that is holding the shipment and they might be able to split the shipment for you.

Well, just as I was getting completely fed up with this ordering experience... Apple appears to have finally pulled through and shipped my Mac Pro :)

Shipped today from Ft. Worth, TX and expected to arrive 9/16 in Austin, TX.

I still wish the experience hadn't been so stressful, but I'm glad it's finally on it's way.

Custom 6-core. From Ireland to Continental Europe. Ordered 8 September, expect it 17 or 20 Sept.
They were going to ship my 6.000 euro six-core only in November 'cause the 80 euro HP printer wasn't in stock :mad:
Took me three days of mails and calls, now the MP has been shipped from Ireland to the Continent. Apple says i'll have it Friday, UPS says Monday.. but hey, a lot better than mid November :)

Edit: but my 30 inch, last-of-the-mohicans cinema display, straight from stock with an expected send-out of 24 hours is still not on the road... Go figure.

Ordered mine on Aug 18th. My order has been delayed TWICE!
Next tentative delivery date: Sep20-27.

Already called 3 times. No concrete answers. The call centre has no idea about anything.

You bet your ass I'm complaining... my order got canceled and re-added a week ago, plus it was delayed the week before that.

I agree that the call center doesn't know anything useful. Talking with them was woefully disappointing.

Same story here.
Funny thing is that I ordered the monitor (Dell 27") at the same time.
Well, got the monitor in like 5 days. And no Mac Pro yet.
Looking forward to be Windows free ASAP! :)

I really wonder what's going on at Apple. It doesn't seem to be limited hardware supply because some people are receiving the Mac Pros within days... whereas others have to way weeks/a month or so :(

same here...from PA.
I ordered it on 7th, then they screwed up on billing.
The guy on the phone when I ordered thr MP told me I am not eligible for the printer since this is a rfb. Then couple days later I called and told him that I am. He just said, ok, he added the printer and Apple run the whole invoice through my credit card again....AMEX blocked it, then as you realize delays, long story short estimated delivery 10/20...niiice so much about speed these days:mad::mad:
