Finally got my MBP 4+ hours late. It was warm from being in the truck all day. :mad:

Question: Does Applecare come separately in a box or pamphlet?
 
ok guys so it seems that our MBPs that are base models 15" will be shipped from Fulton, CA and should be shipping out today at the latest.
 
Mine was ordered on May 25, delayed for updates (thanks Apple) and has been showing ships by June 18 since June 5 updates. Just today my apple status page also says the billing info just like what you have seen. Hopefully they will ship soon!!

gibbz- Can i ask what computer you ordered? i ordered CTO 2.2ghz with 160gb 5400rpm hard drive. And also, mine is an education order. let's hope for the best!!

i bought it through UCLA (i live in los angeles). it's called giving the university a "proposal" (which you probably know) which was maybe not the best idea in terms of getting it as quickly as possible. it has not shipped yet, and it says ships "by jun 20".

yes, I called apple to get this information and they said that only the stock base models are at Fulton. If you have any customizations of any kind then the laptop with the custom components will be shipped from Shanghai.
 
all three of us purchased CTO education. i feel like that is the main cause for the delays and why our computers have not shipped yet.

Oh no! Sounds like Shanghai it is!
 
Thought i'd let everyone know: Ordered my mbp 15" 2.2 200gb on the 11th, about 1pm pacific. It shipped out today, which was the last day of the apple estimated ship time. Yay!
btw, i ordered via the edu store

it's good to hear that apple is shipping them out. it's a little frustrating that they ship the education purchases later, regardless of date purchased. i guess that's what we get for saving money.

Damn, mine has not yet shipped (but I ordered it on the 11th later that night.
Where did it ship from? :)

this is better than when i got my ibook.. i had to wait two weeks for that thing just to ship, bought it the day of the last revision.

Not necessarily true -- I ordered a 15" 2.4 with the 200Gb HD, and it shipped from Bloomington, CA today. (one week after ordering)

OK, let's tray to understand. It appears that most laptops ship from China and only a few from California-gna-gna. There seems to be no rules in regards to stock or CTO either. What about shipping? For those who got it from California, what kind of shipping did you select?
 
Question about shipping

This reminds me, since i ordered my computer through a university, and they were the ones who actually placed the order, i didn't pick a shipping. on my apple status page it says "standard-business." does anyone know what that means?

All the details I can think of:

glossy 15" 2.4 w/ 200Gb drive, all else standard.

Educationalfaculty/staff purchase shipped to a business address, shipping lists as "standard-business" requested. Tracking via Fedex Ground.

Ordered June 7 online. iWork is also being shipping from the same location. Parallels is still waiting to ship.

maybe there's something about software being in the same order? jeff, what is fedex's estimated delivery day for you?
 
Ordered my first macbook pro today,

delivery day 8 aug :( yes I know I wanted the 160gig, 7200 hard drive, but still it's a long time when you are looking foward to it.

Does apple change your deliveryday when the hard disk is available sooner? For a dell example, I had to wait till the estimated day and I even know, in this case, they had the battery 2 week earlier.

yes I'm a newbie on this forum, so excuse me if it's a stupid question :) I had some bad experience about waiting times.

Received by Fedex Wednesday night, left CA Thurnsday noon, estimated delivery to Denver on Monday.

For what it's worth, the software has a different tracking #, despite shipping from the same place on the same day.
 
NOOOOOOOO!!!!

My macbook pro arived today (yesterday, it's night) in the netherlands to merge, and it didn't ship with tnt or UPS. instead my est. delivery date changed to 25-26 June, WTF this is crazy, going to call apple again as soon as they open.
