is on people's idisk?

I'm guessing the downloads will show up on paid subscriber's idisk first. The .mac subscribers did get an email saying it would show up there. And I can respect Apple for trying to get a return on all their development costs for some excellent software by offering it to subscribers first. (giving another great incentive to subscribe)

..... im bored

I'm at work now.... I know how you feel :p

Do you think they'll release 'em 9 am Pacific (when offices open)?
 
Apparently they release them at around 8 am Cupertino (pacific) time.

Although that seems kinda strange, as it would be 11 am by then EST for places such as New York.

Thats a bit late isnt it?

I dont see why they bother waiting until business hours. surely they can automate it so the downloads come up at 12 midnight.
 
I already picked it up!

It was already on the Apple Store shelves here in San Diego, Thursday afternoon! Walked in, there they were, sitting next to the cash registers. I didn't even ask any questions. Picked up a couple of boxes and bought them -- didn't want to lose my chance.

Remember one thing -- you need AT LEAST 4.3 GB free on your boot partition to burn DVD-Rs in the Finder or iDVD .. I'm going through a painful process of backing up stuff and resizing my partitions. UGH. Permissions problems up the yin yang. Gotta reinstall everything. My wife's iBook install went fine (single partition disk) and she's happily playing with iPhoto and iMovie.
 
If they are going to be slack about when it is released at the Apple Stores, they why havent they released the downloadable versions yet?

Makes no sense to me!

Maybe they are trying to force people to buy it, instead of downloading it?
 
Y'all say it'll be up at 8am US time, I'm in AUS and, judging by MCSF, it will be at about 3 when it will be released our time.

I need to find that third bottle I bought.
 
Here y'all in Melbourne go.

Remember- "Think Different" :D

PS-It's all good......;)

This thread seems to have gone a bit ocka, in the last few posts. I'm in Adelaide myself.

I don't see why we have to wait for i(geta)Life just because the yankees are slow. As far as I'm concerned it's been the 31st Jan here for nearly 12 hours ;)

Damn right, well Mattski, at least we can say that we're so fast, we are one day ahead of them.

I don't hate USAians but they should change their time code.
