New Releases: What Time of Day?

[heatasmallhouse]

I noticed the Macbooks were rolled out around 6 am and I was wondering if this is the standard? (with the exception of course being WWDC releases) or does it vary from Tuesday to Tuesday?

I want to know exactly when to be disappointed that the MBPs aren't coming out tomorrow.

Usually sometime in the morning. If they're not out by noon EDT, they wont be coming out

Yeah, usually it's way before noon. I would guess that if nothing is out by 8:00, your chances are slim.

In another thread, it said the US web store would be down between 1600 and 1730 PDT, so expect something around then.

That person quoted 4-5:30 AM PDT, so between 0400 and 0530 not twelve hours later.

:apple:

Aah. My bad. Apologies.

I read in another thread that they do it at 12:20AM but that doesnt sound likely because they probably still have a lot of web traffic at that time to go changing stuff up

6-9 AM PST seems to be the common time to take the store down and leave us wondering.

At least on Tuesdays...
