I'm most certain it did not happen that way.
Apple is one of those companies that requires signature upon delivery for higher value items, or requires you to fill out a package release form taped to your door.
More than likely this person signed for it, set it down, and took a picture. Or, they signed the release form (a gutsy move, I couldn't even do that for my iPhone
)
congratulations use it in good health
That is a beauty you have. Congratulations may it help pay the bills and then some.
Use it in good health!

I've seen UPS leave packages requiring signatures more than once, so I know it does happen. Hopefully Apple no longer uses UPS for this very reason.
I laughed at this, and then thought about my new iPhone, my new iPad mini with retina, then having to get the gf one, then buying a couple of Airs for christmas presents for my parents.. then realized, damn me too!
Really wishing I opted for next day now. Oh well, guess I'll suffer horrendously for the next 2-3 days
Congrats!
I'm hoping for some optimizations for logic audio before being interested (oh, if .au could leverage GPU power). looks great for vid people, though.

I'm doing the same thing, only I haven't made a single dime doing it yet. This will be my motivation.
Some people's kids are not going to see much of their dad this Christmas.
[EDIT: aw someone beat me to it with spouses . . .]

The IDEs themselves are going to be unaffected. High RAM levels can help in very complex projects by permitting more active compilers, as can a higher core count. In projects with few compilers, high core count and high RAM count won't really help. You'll want faster cores for that, and most Mac Pro configs will lose out to an an i5 there. (As will other workstations)
Typically in a more individually developed app, the difference is going to be rather irrelevant.
SSD won't help since your source files will be cached to RAM.
it all depends what he's coming from.
but the work he's doing wont' touch those GPU's. which means he could have gotten an equal performance boost out of a different workstation / Computer that doesn't make you buy 2x workstations GPU's.
he "overpaid" for what he needs.
but thats irrelevant. he wants this. He bought this. He's entitled to it

welcome to UPS.
Ordered $3k worth of computer parts a couple weeks ago. showed up while I was on the can.
within 30 seconds of quickly wiping, pulling up my pants and running to the door, I saw the UPS truck drive away with 3 boxes just left on my doorstep.
My thoughts... I was going to the apple store on the 30th just to see it any way so I'll still go then just cuz by then I'm sure they'll have them
I actually LOVE the look of this machine -- BUT -- you have GOT TO READ THIS ONE . . .
My teenage son says at first glance it looks like a BLACK TOILET FOR A RICH PERSON. So, I laugh and think he is just being a typical teenage idiot for the time being.
But wait, look closely at the box with that in mind. The depth of the box makes it kind of look like . . . Yes, you guessed it.
HAD TO LAUGH then. ;-)

Can I get a Mac Pro with just one graphics card instead of dual?
No? But I don't think Logic Pro X needs the extra graphics card
I just want an excuse to replace my Mac Mini...
I'm wondering if someone more knowledgeable might clarify this but I was under the impression Logic Pro could potentially be able to benefit in the future from dual graphics cards if Apple were to fully support OpenCL?
Not sure if this is true or possible, but if it is, would definitely give good reason to get a Mac Pro for Logic Pro users!

I wouldn't be surprised if in the future reverbs and delays and DSP stuff wouldn't go OpenCL, I had a 2008 Mac Pro 8 core that I never even came close to pegging out but I purchased a new one, I do plan on getting heavily into video and vfx but I could see things working well in logic running lots of plugins
