The guy from APPLE said that the tracking for UTD copies are diff from retail ones, they can't track them via their system, so they could be shipped......I really hope he's right!!!!! But anyway, should be here sometime next week the latest.

But surely it would have been listed as "shipped" on Order Status. I was hoping they'd have shipped by today so they have the weekend to move. But it's not looking promising. Ah well.... good things come to those who wait.
 
Mines Arrived!!

Whooooooooohooooooo!!

My copy of leopard just arrived!! Installing it now!

The Hologram box is way cool...i love how apples design team make
everything so neat.
 
Got mine up and running.

Came this morning at 8.30 am.

Took about 30 minutes to do a clean install (plus about another 30 minutes to check the install DVD)

Just loading all my files back on.

So far I'm loving it. Feels like I have a shiny new computer all over again!

Now running leopard

Retail Box Contents:
10.5 DVD
User Guide
Tradtional Apple stickers.

Install completed, went the erase install option, took 40mins, i skipped the disc verification process as didnt want to wait, but so far everything seems extra fast, the 3D dock is just so nice on the eyes, mail upgrade is tops also some nifty features.

Just installing iLife 08 and iWork 08 so will see how they perform.

Theres already an update via Software Update, "Remote Client Desktop."

Have fun guys hope yours arrives soon if it hasnt already!
 
Rang Apple, apparently with the storm there was some problem so it wouldn't be delivered till Monday. So I'm canceling and going to buy it at Nextbyte tonight
 
just came home from uni then to find my TNT package which came at 11:30... just installed! upgrade took 20 mins... my mac specs are in my sig. im gong to do a fresh install a bit later on after ive played with it! :D let me just say quicklook is the is bomb! i almost cried its so good!

will post some piccies soon for the guys up north to drool over!
 
Dam you :p

What was the last TNT update you had before it arrived?

Still waiting here in Auckland.

I'm still waiting too :(

The TNT site said it had arrived in Auckland at 5 am. I popped into the local depot on the way home from work and they didn't have it, and say that the tracking number isn't even in the system! :eek:

However, they were able to tell me that if it was sent yesterday there's no chance I would've been able to get it today, ie. rather than being a courier holdup, Apple actually sent it too late to fulfil their "delivery on the 26th" promise.
 
Delivery

Just as I started browsing this forum for the first time the door bell rang. It was TNT with my delivery of Leopard :) Freaky or what.

I'm in Brisvegas. Just to let you know that my package came with a sticker for the driver

"as a one off and only for deliveries to private addresses if the consignee is not at home, Apple authorises this to be left in a secure location and without signature"


So for those at work, don't fret! Your package should be waiting when you get home!

91% through install. Fingers cross no glitches
 
heres some piccies for you guys that dont have it yet! :p :apple:

parallels runs great! feels much snappier :D in tiger my CPU usage was around 15-20% now 5-10%
 
Software Update

Just wanted to let you's know theres now a error that appears on
Software Update.. "sw.scan etc", hopefully they are putting some goodies on the server such as tweaks for us to get soon.

At first i thought i had a bug.. but it seems others having same thing.

Quicklook and Files Coverflow makes life so much easier definitly a feature
worth upgrading for alone. Stacks "download" folder was much appreciated i was always creating my own download folder for Tiger and setting it at safari default, so good old apple have done that by default which is good to see.
 
I just called APPLE Australia again, the rep said the UTD discs are being packed and will be shipped out TONIGHT via AUS post, will take 2-3 working days to arrive :mad:This sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!
