Personally I'd just like them to deliver my Apple TV, which has so far been in transit to me for 10 days, presumably carried by a team of trained ants, snails or similar small invertebrates. I can't tell which because they never update the tracking info. Gits.
Got a tip for us?

Apple Store Down - 26th Feb - New Macbooks/pros??
- Thread starter m005e

We were cancelled because of snow. I'm refreshing the Apple site, the Apple Store, and the PR page an average of 20 times a minute.
The best part of it is, I'm getting a Mac Pro and using my G3 iBook for college. I couldn't care less about these MacBook/Pros!
Well, I care... I'm just not getting one.

I feel like I did when I was a kid on Christmas Eve. (Is it Christmas yet?) Or alternativly like I did the day before the last Harry Potter book came out. The wierd thing is I don't even want a MB or MBP. Though secretly hoping for new Imac they're about due now I think it's about two days until the end of their adverage cycle.
They UK store normally goes back up after 1.30pm... so you might have another 40 minutes to wait at least.......
No. No you haven't. Go complain to the people with Mac Pros that your wait is painful. See what happens.
You just watch: Apple's going to throw the biggest curve ball ever. I mean seriously curved. So curved that it follows the curvature of the fabric of space-time and turns the ball into a bowl of petunias and a very confused whale.
Apple's not doing MacBook/Pro updates. The Mini is becoming the xMac.
What would people do? Honestly, we're all hitting refresh 20 times a minute (I am, and I don't even want a MacBook/Pro), and then the Waiters see...
A minitower.
It would be a gargantuan hit and the MacBook complainers would be overshadowed by the minitower waiters getting their wishes.

Don't get your hopes up for any new product lines or case redesigns. Those generally warrant a keynote.
It'll be speed bumps to any combination of the MacBook, MacBook Pro, and iMac.
Did you copy that from the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy??
I thought I recognized it from somewhere...
I know, I know, but a surprise xMac release would be the turnover of the century. They could do the store release now with His Jobsness holding a small press conference about the surpriseness of the release this evening.
And yes, yes I did. If you'll notice my sig, I've been playing the text-only-venture on my Apple ][ and have The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide hard-bound book.
And I take a towel with me everywhere on Towel Day.
I thought I was a pathetic dork with no life until I read that some people have been refreshing the Apple store page for hours.
Too right! Me too!
Has anyone...tried phoning the numbers on the page to try and buy something?....They could have all the information already and could already be selling them at this very minute :O
