After seven years of my PowerMac G5, 1/16 sounds like tomorrow.:)

Hi there. I believe you're the only person I know who ordered their iMac late in Dec (or even mid-Dec) and has a firm delivery date in Jan. Most of the folks who ordered on or after 6-10 Dec have only "January" as the ship date.

Had a dream, the same dream every night the past week, that it went to "prepare for shipping", False alarm. As is still processing.

:) Me too. Wake up, grab phone, refresh app (Junecloud) and refresh webpage just in case the app was wrong... :p, dissapointment, then this forum and read all the new posts.
 
Mine has SHIPPED! Expected delivery date of December 24. Too bad I will be out of town until Christmas, so I'll have to wait until December 26 to get my hands on the package. Delivery history: Ordered December 3, Preparing for Ship December 20, Shipped December 20, Expected Delivery December 24.

I ordered a 27" 3.4GHz/3TB Fusion/2GB Video/8GB RAM on Dec. 4th, around 1:30pm EST. Still processing and showing January 2-8, 2013 for delivery. Cancel button is still there.
 
4 January or bust

If I don't receive the iMac by 4 January (28 December to 4 January) I will be canceling the order and returning all the accessories I purchased for a full refund. I have until 7 January to get a full refund for the 32 GB of OWC RAM, extra apple keyboard with numeric pad, Superdrive, and AppleCare. As of today still in limbo......Processing item.......

For those who are already seeing "Preparing for shipment" on their status, when did the iMac show up in your Apple support profile? Was it while it was still processing? I know I won't get mine before the Holiday, but I am certainly hoping to see some sort of change!!
 
I placed my order on Dec 12. Order is "Processing", and expected to ship in January. This is the first Mac I have purchased, so excited. Meanwhile my current computer is making a death rattle noise and can barely handle multiple adobe programs. :(

It's bummer that you're processing in the meanwhile... but if this is your first ever Mac, you're in for a TREAT :) You're going to have an amazing, error-free, sleek Apple experience, and you're going to love every second of it. Totally worth the wait. Hang in there!

I don't want to be "that guy" and call Apple, but I am getting really frustrated that I am still processing.

I am right there with you. I might be "that guy" tomorrow because I'm sick off seeing this image!

*The CC hold disappeared, AGAIN! :mad:
