Education User - ordered my copy on Monday night.

Yesterday it was updated to 2nd day from the free ground.

Right now it is still open and still at 2nd day.

-------

I also ordered copies through Now Up To Date program for some G5's. The web order didn't work so I faxed it on Monday. I have no clue the status of this order.
 
I ordered via the Up-To-Date program for my G5 and got my shipping notification this afternoon. I probably won't be able to do anything with it on Friday, and leave for 9 days of hiking in the Rocky Mountains on Saturday, so I guess it'll just have to sit around for a while collecting dust. On the bright side, Software Update should have some bug fixes available by the time I get to install it.
 
I ordered mine with the education discount since my wife is in grad school - and also I used my .Mac $20 coupon over the phone so my total was $53.05. By order still says "open" and was changed to standard overnight, so I guess that means it will ship out tomorrow? I was hopeing for an e-mail today -
 
I ordered my Panther on the 18th. Says that it shipped today and is due the 24th. When I check the tracking at FedEx, says not scanned at their facilty yet.

Duff-Man says.....My shipment says the same, however I just talked to FedEx and they said that they actually have not picked up the package yet and that this info is just "pre-input" and that it is highly unlikely that delivery would happen Thursday....he also said he has seen "hundreds" of these today and had many calls about it.......oh yeah!
 
dilemma

I recently did some freelance work and I'm expecting $350 by tomorrow or Friday. Problem is, my mom is lookin to take all of that money, and I cant buy the Panther edu discount in the store, which i was PLANNING to do. :( So now, I have to find someone with a credit card, or do some pleading.

Do you owe your mother the money, or does she just take money from you? If she does, and you're in college, tell her to earn her own damn money :D

I dont owe her $$, and she makes her own. It's just that bills, + splitting the mortgage, + cable AND cable modem, + car payments, + car insurance, - father = STRESS.
I'm sure being a single parent PLUS supporting a 20 year old isnt exactly the easiest thing in the world.
So, I dont mind givin her the money, just not ALL of it :D I need Panther!!!
I'm sure that whomever is a parent here, with a child in college, understands this situation.
 
My copy of Panther is currently in Lancaster, PA. I will hope to get it by earliest Firday. If I get it tomorrow I will pee myself.

:p
 
My package says OUT FOR DELIVERY and says that it should come today! (October 23rd) Maybe I wil be the first to get it? :p

Let the race begin!!
<shoots gun up in the air>

Go!

same here. I still have open status, but have been upgraded to overnight shipping. If it doesnt ship by noon, im going to call apple and cancel the order, and just go buy it at the university bookstore.
 
delivery method

Hi to all the Brits out there...

I was advised Tuesday 21st lunchtime that Panther had shipped via 'Parcel Post' - does that mean Royal Mail delivery, or just 'any carrier they choose to use on that particular day', since I still don't have it yet......

anyone received theirs yet?

please let me know.

TIA

Nig.

WHAt, so lucky, ordered mine ages ago and still waiting for it to be put out for delivery. hmm...then again it was an UTD order...any news on UK UTD orders?
 
Apple Store says that my Panther has been shipped. FedEx has it listed as 2-day air and to be delivered by 4:30pm 10/24. That will be great timing so that I can attend the Panther Party as planned.
 
All I know is that I want someone in Dallas who receives their copy of Panther *today* or earlier to let me install it on my machine *today* so I don't have to wait until *tomorrow*. I just checked my FedEx track and mine won't arrive until tomorrow, Friday. Argh!
