Just called Apple...my UTD copy which was said to deliver on the 29th isn't here. They said that that date doesn't reflect USPS shipping--that is when it would have been delivered had it been shipped by FedEx. He said to wait an additional 5-7 days and to ignore the scheduled delivery date. :(

Meh, I wouldn't take that for an answer...

Call back and ask for some free stuff!

i feel bad calling and complaining all the time...i know it's not their fault. at the same time, for $9.95 S/H i feel like we could get it faster here than they're doing. it's just sort of frustrating.

I am having the same problem.... everyday i look the arrival is always another day later... it is really getting me mad.... so what i did i could not wait any longer so i went out to the apple store and bought the full version of leopard... i am going to call them tomorrow and demand a refund for my full version and tell them that there was no way i could wait this long for the UTD disk.. this is friggen redicoulous... The only thing we payed for was the shipping on them and 9.99 + Tax.. I am not bying that it costs that much to ship standardly.. with that 9.99 it seems like they could of got faster shipping on the disks.. they dont even weigh much... I just cant believe that apple os treating us this way i would think they would expedite it to us because in the last month we bought a computer from them which we paid alot of money for therefore we should be getting treated better than the regular copies of laeopard:apple::apple:

Wow, You sir are EXTREMELY inpatient.

You just spent $130 to get your leopard a few days early?

I can almost guarantee apple will not refund you the cost. Best you can hope for is a $30 coupon off your next purchase of $200 or more.

I was tempted to do the same thing. But the refund process would undoubtably be difficult and/or impossible.

Regardless, I am still waiting for my copy as well. I bought my comp 3 wks ago. My mate bought his 1 wk ago and he is awaiting his upgrade too.

Hopefully tomorrow...
