I am in the UK. I ordered the max out 13.3 about one hour after the apple store went back on Wednesday. It is still not yet shipped.

esco · Oct 22, 2010, 05:59 AM

13.3" Maxed out, ordered at 3:20pm Eastern. Prepared for shipment!

daviesified · Oct 22, 2010, 05:59 AM

Maxed out 13.3", not yet shipped.

SandboxGeneral · Oct 22, 2010, 06:01 AM

Please forgive my ignorance, but what does the acronym BTO represent?

BTO = Build To Order

Truthfully, I've not seen any "BTO" designations on these rigs posted. These are all CTO's (Configured To Order) so the BTO designation is a misnomer. I'm not even sure there is such a thing, unless abbreviations vary depending on the country you reside in?

If you ordered it 2 hours before me, that would have been at 12:05P Pacific time, right?

Also, write up a review if you have time. I cannot wait for these numbers to come in, as I have high hopes for both of these MBAs.

Radarflem · Oct 22, 2010, 06:22 AM

I ordered the maxed out 13.3 (4GB/256GB/2.13) shortly after the store re-opened on the 20th.

special special sauce

from the man himself, as a sorry for having to return 4 imacs in 2 weeks, so he gave me a macpro and some special sauce to apologise

please note: no special sauce was actually supplied, i am merely talking utter bs

Great, thanks for the clarification!

M87 · Oct 22, 2010, 07:46 AM

I ordered the exact same configuraition very early yesterday morning and it still has not prepared for shipment. My complimentary printer is already on its way though.

NativeOSXboy · Oct 22, 2010, 08:05 AM

I ordered mine around 11:00 CST, yesterday. Still saying it's not shipped, and it's giving me an estimate of 3 to 5 days before it does. It's like waiting for a mail-order child haha.

Ordered an 11.6" with just a ram upgrade.

Adidas Addict · Oct 22, 2010, 08:12 AM

C'mon already !!!!!!!

At least a change to prepared for shipment would be something
