February Orders
That makes sense! I'm sure that if someone has posted a walkthrough it will work as described - it seems that way from reading the comments on the article provided earlier in the thread.
My thoughts exactly, would rather go for maxed out components now as I expect the computer to last me for 5 years plus, also I have heard the upgraded car rumours and if they are true they wouldn't surprise me. Both getting the same specification at hopefully around the same time then.. When did you order just for comparison?
Got to love the Education store, that's why I made the decision to buy now as after June I will no longer be eligible :/ March cannot come quickly enough for all of us in this group by the sounds of it...
Same spec as me, will be interested to see how much of a difference there is in delivery dates - I would hope that there's no more than 3 days seeming as that's what's between us in terms of ordering dates.
I can not find the article I was reading. It was a very good article explaining why 32 bit systems can't work with more than 2.2 TB. However, as I understand it, Mountain Lion will still use the remaining 1.8 (actually less due to partitions) for storage once the portions are done. I hope it works.

Ordered last night. Got the i7/680MX/ 1 TB Fusion. I ordered with edu discount though I think I would have saved more if I went through 3rd party to save on taxes. Currently showing March 12-19, which technically is a little more than 4-5 weeks for delivery (I am US based).
Decided on the 680mx since am a little skeptical that some of the shipped 675mx so far may be upgraded cards (see posts in other thread) and feel more comfortable having a 2gb card in a computer that I expect to have for 5 years.
