Haha I think its safe to say you might be excited? I can't really tell... 
Anyway, congratulations on your purchase. I just ordered my MB Black yesterday and overnighted it... But for some stupid reason its coming tomorrow? Oh well, I'm too excited to get angry. I guess to Apple there isn't any difference between overnight shipping and 2 day shipping... (besides the excess $9 they make, $18 2 day - $27 overnight)

Ah... yes the ultimate experience for the materialist.
I'm a happy materialist...lol. I remember when I first got my MBP - I was pretty excited. But 99% of my posts or threads I started were not an announcement of such. I can understand where triddent is coming from.
Keep posting about your excitement APPLEFAN, but please keep it in ONE thread (this thread) and not in every single thread you post on. Some people are beginning to groan every time they see your username because they expect its another announcement about your MB/MBP/tax breaks/your father's gov't position etc.
So, when you do get your MB tomorrow, let us know HERE what you think and how it's goin' for you and even post pics and such. But please, keep it here.
You have my vote for presidency, senate, or whatever government position you're running for
. tata
They should
You're going to get it and do not know how much it is? Curious, do you know how to use PS?
No time into what exactly?
Sure post pics.
Cuz his dad iz a State Polease.
Minus the $650 for Photoshop of course. I hope you get a nice expensive box with something in it though.
Dude please don't feed the monkeys.
Good! Were you by chance doing something that didn't involve the written word?
I worry about you.
FWIW his user name can be ignored.
Hey Applefan, seriously good luck with you and your drive with your State Police father to Delaware where you will buy your black macbook that is not 15" but 13" and Photoshop CS providing it is for sale in the store where you will walk out with the expensive box hopefully housing an expensive laptop where you will drive all the way home with your State Police dad and load that puppy up and come back and post pictures that we all really want to see and then start another thread because this one may be down on the bottom of the forums and a new thread is something that will get way more attention and it is possible there are some members that do not know of your tax free (government discount from your State Police father) increased ram photoshop cs running with the ipod dock and some other freebie machine.
And do not worry about people like...well me and vicious7. Vicious7 is made because I made him groan in another thread talking about balls (not those balls kiddo) and I'm just mad because I want a shinny new computer on a government discount. You do what you want, you have a right to be excited after working 320 hours!
Tomorrow it is you say? What time, I'm going to come back and I hope to see pictures.
320 hours for $1300 really isn't that much, it comes out to be around $4.06 an hour. But this is considering that you spent some money on other things or tax, etc.
This was probably a pointless post, but then again there's really nothing to live up to in this thread.

Would you marry me?
And, please, don't forget his PS3, which he plays on his brand new plasma (with BURNZ-IN PROTECTIONZ! LOLZ.... ok...). He also has several Blu-Ray discs and PS3 games which he mentioned for the sake of showing off.
Have a good day.
I believe I may have to challenge you for jessica's heart, triddent. Choose your weapon

Teah I am, i'm leaving round 9:30 2 go to Delaware. I'll post my setup also when I get my printer also from the apple store. YEs I will post pics! Hopefully i'm aloud since of what sblasl said! Ahh since I talked about it so much i'm gonna post the pics!
Forget what they say, it's a mac forum. Post those pics.
I wouldn't mind checkin out the PS3 and plasma set-up too! But we should probably keep it on topic.
I told you not to feed the monkeys.Bump for APPLEFAN
Wake up and go get the thing already! I wanna see pics and maybe a video of the opening of this precious notebook!!!!11!!11!!1one!
You better be waiting at the door as they unlock it.
Allowed. Sblasl is FOS. Please do not forget to come back with your expensive box and post inexpensive pics on the free website in which the free world is waiting with baited breath for you to come home with your new macbook the one that almost takes on a life of its very own and somehow sounds like a better macbook than any other macbook available I simply cannot wait. I am giving major consideration to actually staying home so I can be one of the first to witness this great event this is really like waiting for a keynote to be posted on itunes or MWSF 2010 I am actually jittery right now about this I am so excited a new printer you say that is simply awesome a new printer and a new macbook and photoshop so long as the store has it and a dad willing to drive on a day when he isn't state policing even though he was tired from driving to PA for two drag races which was 600 miles from wherever you are and still willing to get into the car and drive to Delaware what a grand dad go dad hey speaking of your dad, wait never mind, look I am just so excited and the period on my keyboard appears to be faulty.
Oh the irony.
Thanks for the story jessica! I'm sure it will sell great at bookstores! I'm not being mean but do you have any macs? Jw thanks
If you're copying his writing style, you didn't use NEARLY enough exclamation points..
I enjoy it.
However, on a serious note: I'm so excited!!
Oh yeah, I was searching through threads you started and I was wondering if you decided which method you are going to use to get your iTunes files from your PC to your new black macbook?
And also, have you resolved you wireless printing issue? If not, I could probably help you with both. Just wanna make sure you get the most out of your first Mac experience. Enjoy.

I'm going to transfer my files wirelessly over my network since I have a wireless router and an ethernet cable and all sorts of other methods. I'm not gonna do wireless printing becuase I figured since i'm getting a free printer I'm just keep that in my room and when I want to print I'll just go to my room and hook in the printer and print. There are other ways too to transfer music but i'm gonna figure that out when I get back. I'm leaving in 10 mins so i'll be back to post PICS!
Very well. I'm glad it's straightened out. We will be here waiting!! Good luck. Are you going to get Applecare or any other accessories? Or are you just going to wait for your birthday to get the Applecare?
I'm gonna get the ipod dock, the 15 dolar itunes gift for my new itunes account, the printer and the macbook of course! I'm waiting to get applecare for my b-day. By the time my b-day comes my temporary applecare thats comes with the macbook will only have like 40 days on it left! We'll i'm leaving now! Peace be back in an about 2 hours!
"Off they go into the wild blue yonder"
APPLEFAN8, I would suggest that you transfer your files to your new MacBook via the ethernet cable. It will be much faster.
BTW, I was just messing with you(again) regarding reporting you to the authorities. But please keep it here so we know where to go to get the latest up to the minute status of you & your MacBook.
