Whatever possessed you to inflict that monstrosity of a return key on your Mac?
Probably the same reason that I ordered a US layout, programmer.
Plus, I never hit the top of the return key on a UK mac, always the bottom.
No we didn't, which is my point. We both had different delivery windows. I got my phone a couple of days before the earliest date in the delivery window and he got his 3 weeks before the earliest date in the delivery window. So is that fair?
But he and I ordered 3 minutes after the store went live and other people who did their order at the same time, had a much earlier delivery window.
Thanks, that's interesting.
Hmm was expecting there to be a bigger foot print difference considering the bezel reduction.
OK. I am not sure what benchmarks people want. I downloaded one from the App Store for the SSD, blackMagic.
The test doesn't seem to end for me, just keeps cycling. But here's what it is showing on the screen.
It pretty much goes to the max 2000 and then falls down a little bit... I assume that's good.

I live in the US but I ordered the UK layout keyboard.I live in the UK but i ordered the US layout keyboard
Mine is shipped. So I agree. I don't think it's the keyboard that caused the delays in EU.
Insanely fast. What size drive are you running?
BlackMagic tops out at 2GBps. In reality it could be achieving nearly 3GBps read.
Same here:

Your argument makes no sense. Your brother was informed about the fact he would receive the Jet Black later if ordered and agreed with the buy button to get it later. The decision was in his hands, this one is not, which is also a part of the whole argument.
Same. It's gonna be a close one tho. I mentioned previously that I will be gone Friday noon cuz I have a trip to London and won't be back till like 1 week after thanksgiving. So I REALLY need the computer on Thursday. Now looking at it that I'm not even on FX90 makes me all kinds of nervous.
They better put me on FX72 or I'm gonna lose my s**t. Also praying that customs won't be an a**hole.

That might be it. But again who knows what's up with Apple and the choices they make...
Apple really did butcher the non-US orders. (or it's maybe favoritism?)
I ordered one right after the event, to be delivered to Tokyo and here I am on this thread seeing that some Macs actually went through Japan to reach the US, while mine is still "Processing Items"
:nothappy:

but do you know what's the point of moving my order from shanghai China to Osaka Japan because I have seen mostly people from US itself getting orders from china only
OK. My conclusion from looking at UPS 105 and UPS 81 is that the earliest I could see a departure scan is tomorrow morning texas time.
This release reminds me of the launch of the first Apple Watch. People started sharing what time they received the email from the Apple Store as a way to try to figure out if someone received theirs bore they should've. IMO the real problem is the delivery window. 7 or more days is absurd and most just expect it to arrive at or before the first day of the window anyways. Apple should go back to using a single date "receive by 11/16/16" for example.
I'm located in Virginia and am on FedEx as well. Perhaps it's the East Coast in general? My tracking info is the same as you guys'. 12:13 am at local facility in Shanghai. ETA Thursday by 8 pm. I'm hoping it arrives Wednesday though. If it makes the flight later today it will be in TN early tomorrow. Surely they can get them out for delivery by Wednesday?
No problem.
We have a special queuing system in operation, if somebody orders after you they get their drink first!
Me too. I really hope so. Why on earth were we not on this morning's plane?
