Apple's Online Store Down Ahead of Today's iPhone 7 Event

[captain cadet]

I was about to buy keyboard, mouse and couple of adapters for a spare workstation - definitely wouldn't ask for any refund.

Try the wall plug like me - I had to drive a hour to the nearest store to pick on up instead of waiting for tomorrow as Ill miss the 7pm deadline tonight.
I was lucky today there was other work in the office needed to be done but not having it tomorrow would be problematic

Nope.

THIS is what they posted (spoiler free) after the link.... it doesn't make sense in any context; that's Apple's own live stream. Saying that it is "spoiler free" has no meaning. It clearly must have been a typo or brain fart.

Don't kill yourself over a trivial subject.

I will take it as the best sarcasm ever!

Did anybody catch the Nintendo guy say " Thank's Steve" as he walked on stage ?

Maybe preorders go live today?

Kind of early for the takedown of the store so maybe Apple is adding server capacity...

What would he do?

Crossing fingers for preorders going live today.

I agree that they will never go back to that again. However you do realise that Ive was the one who designed the original iMac with the transparency case right?

Ive is a very good designer, when directed by a visionary like Steve. Left on his own he's an out of control loon.

Don't kill yourself over a trivial subject.

Omg, THANK YOU!!!!!
I was totally planning on killing myself over a trivial subject. Simply because you & a MR editor made a silly little error that I thought it would be amusing to point out.... I was literally going to kill myself. I appreciate you saving my life.
Wait.......... no I wasn't. & I gave NOT the slightest inkling that it was an important issue to me.

What a really, really, really weird, bizarre, creepy, dark, inappropriate & odd thing to say!!!!

I noticed today that the iPhone Plus took a $20 price hike... if I say: "huh, that kinda sucks", would you respond with "omg, please don't kill yourself!!!!!"? What exactly is your threshold for weird overreacting, and talking about people you don't know & suicide???

You might want to take a deep look at your life. This is NOT the way normal people talk to each other. Most people consider suicide macabre & generally it is avoided in conversations. I don't know what possessed you to be so creepy, but it's genuinely disturbing.

Please keep your comments to yourself from now on, unless you can follow the normal societal mores.

Thanks in advance.

UK store has been down all day, too. I'm sure they all are.

Timezones are probably part of the reason they take the store down for so long: gives a clear cutoff date for when you can order an old model.

I did mean the physical stores that people can walk into. But hey ho.
