It's midnight in less than than two hours in new zealand. Let's hope for the best
Uhhh, do you have something planned for midnight?
Yes, he's going to sacrifice a Windows PC at the altar of the iMac in the hope of online orders...

Apple will ALWAYS release/update products on Pacific time zone. They won't accomodate to other regions first and luckily I won't need to sleep before they go on sale tomorrow since I live in Hawaii, 2 hours behind CA time. I can't wait to see the custom config options or the pre-order sale for the 27" (I hope).
How quickly do you think the iMacs will go out of stock?
Cupertino Hour is the important!!
Not really. Apart from when the store is refreshed during or just after a keynote, the Apple store closes down around 9:30 AM UK Time on the day, which is very early for Cupertino. This is the pattern that has been followed for at least the last two years. You can expect the store to close either tomorrow or Wednesday around 9:30 / 10:00 am UK time.

Just a WAG, but Tim said supplies would be limited for awhile. They will have enough for the first day, but I think it will then be a couple of weeks. They will flog their workers to get the 21.5 to you before Christmas but maybe not the 27.
This has been discussed about 1,000,000 times on this forum before. There is a multitude of economic reasons for this. I would suggest reading up about micro and macro economics. But to keep it simple and save you some time: the biggest reason for the difference is the fact that the US price does not include the sales tax. I am not sure what your post has to do with this topic though?
Na, I added it to cart with shipping info so the sales tax is there on the US site.
Any other simple reasons?
(The topic is buying an apple in NZ. I'd say my post is slightly relevant)

Well, to put it simply, travel around the world and you'll find that people don't get paid the same for doing the same jobs in different countries and a pint of the same beer does not cost the same everywhere.
Oh well. iMac tomorrow. Yay.

This is why I don't buy apple in NZ.
(Crazy!)
Is it this bad elsewhere?
