Macrumors is going nuts!

There is a theological term for this frenzied waiting, we are said to be immanentising the eschaton.

In that case, my apologies peeps. The banner on that site has not been showing here in Oz for the past few hours. With it coming on so briefly and then dissapearing again, I assumed it was the new banner. The Lion OSx image on the right threw me.

Why is the rum gone?

I'm a bit late, but do I get the achievement of worst download speed?

People telling us the stores are down, they have been down for hours, do you honestly think we don't know this?!

Pretty sure there are some more duplicates of information in the past 52 pages.
Apple store was up and running beginneing of the 20th in NZ as well. Maybe some people were wondering if it was the same in their own country as well?

Lets talk about possible future animals the OS could be named after. Cats will have to end someday so lets do sharks!


Tiger Shark
Great White
Hammer Head
Mako Shark

Maybe even dino's!

Rapter OS
T-Rex OS

Yey

It's the 20th for another 16.5 hours in the entire US. Why is everyone talking about "any minute"?

I know this probably doesn't matter for downloading lion, but it's surprising that my upload speed is faster lol... but you guys do win

you are correct, poster. it won't matter for lion.

 

[Liquinn]

When will the news Airs be released?

Macrumors is going nuts!

I made this prognosis yesterday and unfortunately, it hasn't got any better :-( Everyones f@ckin looped.
I'm thinking there could be carbon monoxide leaks from our glorious macs though...
Quick everyone open windows for some ventilation. Perhaps the lunacy will subside.

Nope, i did to... i followed lots of threads here, so now seems like a good time to sign up
We keep on waiting, like anyone else...

 

[sterumbelow]

I'll be making do with my speedy 4mbps internet connection.

I hope everyone's all updated in preparation, otherwise I might win.

Because it would be nice if Lion would be released on the 20th in every country of the world.

No, search back through the pages and there is someone with less than 0.5Mb/s.

Is the Sun up yet in Cupertino? Wait till people wake up!

 

[PurpleLogix]

[SSVicious]

I am going to poop on my Mac if Lion isn't up soon....

Are you really in Hawaii? Your speed may be slow, but who cares in a place like that?!

I tried to warn you... you didn't listen.

We should all post screenshots of strange things we believe we've seen on apple.com over the last few hours.

 

[shk718]

iCleanMemory is the number 1 paid app on the app store - how long do you think it'll take for that to change?

Dang. Didn't think it could get worse than me.



Sadly, that's the best I can get in my area!
