SUPER SWEET!!! :eek: :)

I bumped it up to an i7 and also 8 Gigs of Ram.

=) So it was custom.

Also i had a shipping charge problem as well... and i called Apple, got a person on the phone within 30 seconds of Dialing... no waiting.. and it was an English speaking american... and he fixed the charge....

Wow that is super fast. Any problems with the LCD screen? The apple site now says 5-7 days but you got it even faster. You are lucky.

Well that's encouraging. I ordered the same configuration minus the 8GB RAM upgrade. I ordered it with 4GB and ordered an additional 4GB from bhphoto for $83 to save some $$$. Congrats on your purchase and speedy shipping. Could you let me know if you experience any of the yellow tint issues others have experienced with the 27" variety? Thanks!

I think you misread, the OP said it "shipped", not delivered. :)

[Chubby Davis]

Still telling people mine came overnight from Shanghai to Clearwater ....

[computermilk]

I think you misread, the OP said it "shipped", not delivered. :)

It's "Out for Delivery"

as we speak =)

So it should be here by lunchtime like in an hour.

[WizardHunt]

I think you misread, the OP said it "shipped", not delivered. :)

No I did not misread it. Maybe you did. He stated it was ordered on Thursday, shipped next day, and is out for delivery today, That is only ,lets see counting Thursday, Friday, Monday as business days that is 3 days not 5-7 business days as apple site usually quotes. So you are the one who misread it my friend.

[computermilk]

after you get it, please let us know about the screen if it is yellow tint?

My 27" is in for repair. I sent an email to steve jobs complaining about the build quality and i got a phone call from apple the next day. I bought mine from an apple retail shop. I live in the uk.

[ncfuser]

I ordered an i7 on Thursday evening. Has not shipped yet. But they did ship the printer. Are you sure it is not your printer (if you ordered one)?

OP, congrats on your new i7! This really upsets me though, I've been waiting on a replacement for mine with the flickering problem since January 15! Thats 5 and a half weeks! Hopefully I'll get it soon, otherwise customer relations will be hearing from me! I hope yours is perfect OP so you don't have to deal with getting Apple to fix it.

Look, this will be my last post about this, but please pay attention to what you just wrote. The OP said it was "Out for Delivery", right? You asked him how the screen was? I took that as you expecting an answer when he had not even received the machine. Had you asked, "Let us know how the screen is once you get it", I wouldn't have said anything. So who read it wrong???:p

[BulletToothTony]

it's 7pm we're waiting for an update here.. helloooo.. we can't wait on the forums all day haha jk.. hope is great :D

[duky]

LOL maybe he's just having fun with his new machine ;)

[covrc]

I just got my i7 standard configuration. Delivered 0900 in Seabrook NH from Shanghai.
Ordered 2/18/10 @ 2200
Shipped 2/19/10 @ 0900
Delivered 2/22/10 @ 0900

SHOCKED!! But incredibly happy.

Now I am doing all the testing etc.

No Flickering.

Not hot after only 3 hours of running.

Yellow mmmmm trying not to see it, if it is there, it is not grossly there. I see it some time more than other. Called Applecare to report it just in case.
They suggested going to a store and have a new LCD installed if I wanted. Am holding on that.

Backlight Bleeding mmmmm the corners get a little gray/blue, but I still need to find a better way to test that. Any suggestions?

covrc:rolleyes:

[swee5420]

You could test at night. Off all your lights, turn the brightness of the imac to maximum, then view a black image at fullscreen.

[computermilk]

LOL maybe he's just having fun with his new machine ;)



OMG!!!!

So sorry for everyone who was waiting on my response! I completley forgot because of how much fun i was having!! LOL!!

Please accept my apologizes everyone...

UPDATE***

No Yellow Tint issue! Runs perfect!!!! I played on it until like 2 am last night!!! then finally passed out!! HA!

Yeah i love it.... :) :apple::apple::apple::apple:

[computermilk]

http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff118/rmblot/Worried.gif



LoL!

So sorry guys... once again... i forgot!!

Yeah i did the yellow screen test and it's perfect, no weird noises either... and i even made a few movies using i Movie, and stayed up until like 2 am.


I also did some performance tests, and i loaded up iTunes and turned on Star Trek in HD,

Then i installed Heroes of Newerth (a game) and ran that in Windowed Mode

and had them both running at the same time, and Not a single slowdown! runs like a champ!

[ankurgupta]

Too much yellow floating around here.

[Arxaios69]

computermilk please let us know what week your is?

I have ordered a Mac 27 standard Core 2 Duo Since 1st of December (Greece) and in the local store (Not AppleStore) they told me they do not get delivered to us and they keep changing the dates because of issues they have... then i logged in here to see what happens.
I assume now is fixed since the last date i got from the local store is end of this month to be delivered !!!! (i wait 3 months i do not believe them....)
Too much patience but at least they protected me from a possible usual problem...

let us know, thanks

Ok how do i look up what week it is?

Look up serial number either on the box, or from the menu bar, click the Apple symbol and choose "about this Mac", and where is says "Version", click it twice and your serial number comes up. From there if you serial number reads
W8, that means it's made in China. The 3rd number following is the year it was made, most likely it will be a zero if your iMac is a newer build. The 4th and 5th digit is the build week. So if your serial reads W8005, then you have week 5.
