[Miikejs22]

Just checking but I assume if my courier is UPS it will be delivered by in a UPS van? Just seen a TNT one and obviously panic set in when it drove away 🙂

Mike, UPS delivered mine yesterday and it was indeed a brown UPS van with a chap in the matching uniform. It was just before 3pm that mine turned up, but they're out and about until around 7pm i think. If the UPS tacking says it will arrive today it will arrive, have faith!

My iMac only updated to 'Out for Delivery' at about midday, before that it was still showing it as stuck at Castle Donnington. If you're not sure they'll show, call the customer service team, they were very helpful.

My iMac was shipped today with TNT, and is currently sitting in Pudong Airport in Shanghai waiting to hitch a ride on the flight that´s leaving tomorrow, according to TNT´s flight schedule.

Estimated delivery is Feb 14, but since they go nonstop from Shanghai to Liege, I am guessing Feb 12th 😀

FedEx!

FedEx is my hero right now. 3 days from pickup at the factory in China to my front door... with Standard Shipping. 😱

It shipped on Tuesday, and it's out for delivery right now.

Funnily enough i'm up in Liverpool today and tomorrow, had to leave my new toy behind and i'll properly set it up on Friday night or the weekend. I've got a brace of external harddrives with my iTunes & Aperture libraries just waiting to transfer across.

I thought my iMac was coming tomorrow! So surprised to see the FedEx truck pulling up RIGHT NOW! 🙂

Here is where it is going, typical college desk covered in books:

That must be horrible suppose at least you know it's there waiting for you when you get back. 🙂

Germany! Release my iMac!

 

[Miikejs22]

:d

Well....it is here! Do I really need to leave it an hour before turning it on?

No, you must sit and admire it first. Maybe give it a polish and offer it some ram.

Aahahahh!
Krautland is holding my imac too. Maybe they think it's something like a deposit for the italian debt. Merkel wants it all!

LOL. What are you like. Is it really cold?

You've probably turned it on already

And I hate to say this. But mines got problems.

Congrats man! I know that feeling. Mine came this morning a whole day before FexEx said they'd deliver!

I unboxed, installed the 32Gb of memory, plugged in and booted it up. Only got to do a few things on it before heading off to today's computer science lectures. Never wanted to skip class so bad! It runs beautifully and the screen appears flawless. Damn near silent. Wifi and Bluetooth antennas are working great.

I made sure to set up DropBox before I left so it could sync everything while I was away. 😛

I guess that's it for me and this thread! Thanks for a fun three weeks!

Final time from order to delivery: 21 days

Oh dear, what problems are they? Hope it is nothing to severe! 😱

 

[Megaoctane]

Yeah @oililymad, i am also interested.

I thought I was going mad... Im not

it will not accept my password on log in.


i thought Oh crap I've changed it or something and now I cant remember but again and again I tried, and then it accepted it.

so i logged out and tried again


same thing.

it accepts the correct password sometimes and not at all other times.

I really thought i was losing the plot, but it is really happening.
