MacNN cites the first user report of Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) shipping from the online Apple Store.

One user's shipment confirmation for the product places it for delivery on April 25th, 2005 via Fedex Ground.

The official worldwide launch is to take place on April 29th.

Has Apple ever shipped a week early before?
 
Yeah baby!

I'm gonna check my order now! (Even though i'm in australia).. just as soon as my cursor stops screwing around on my erratically, just after i installed that Tab safari thing by that guy who does stuff with version 4.7 and that..

yeah.

Edit: ahh boring.. still open, and due on or before 28th of April.
Still! One day early would be.. cool..?.. :p
 
Mine's gone from "Open" to "Processing Order."

Hopefully that means it'll ship today.
 
You guys suck :p I want mine too, it's still open. Nah, I am happy for all of you, that way you get to find all the bugs before us and we know what will erase our hard disks. :D
 
ditto

Same here - so assuming apple maintains its past patterns.... it ships today but FedEx will NOT get the package until Monday and I get it on Wednesday. They are really good at getting tracking numbers but missing the fed ex truck!
 
Mine is still on 'open'. But i do live in Holland..

Wait never mind..it has also changed.....woohoo :D :D :D
 
mine says delivery on or before 4/28

sidenote: my final cut studio upgrade is slated for delivery on or before 5/31
 
I want it NOW. I don't enjoy waiting, and it's not true that good things come to those who wait.
 
I heard that some website accidentally send out a couple of orders.... I think macmall or something like that.
 
In the United States, Apple has simply changed "open" status to "Processing Order." It is their new terminology.

As far as those who shipped, that is amazing, and it ticks me off a bit. I want mine! :)
 
Ok now i am confused...when i log in at applestore.com it says it is processing order. then when i log into applestore.nl it says open.

I am believing the US page :p :p
 
I'm not even getting it delivered, so I guess I'll be getting it on the 29th.

Hey, if I use my iPod to back up my HD, and I erase my HD and do a fresh install of Tiger, will iTunes erase my iPod when I first plug it in, as my library on my Mac is empty and iTunes syncs my iPod to my iTunes library?

I'm just preparing for the big day (29th for me). Hope you guys report the bugs here so that I can wait for updates before installation. :)
