Same here - guess we ain't gettin our new cat tomorrow. Oh well.
Add me to the list of the UTD's that are still stuck in "Not Yet Shipped". Oh well I'll go hang out at the Apple store and play with the demos then come home and read all of the gloating posts from people that got their Leopard today.
"We've got thousands to deliver just to this zip code."
US zip code 10002 (nyc) - family pack. Originally scheduled with an estimate of by 10:30AM then a Delivery exception at 10:24 and rescheduled for 6:00 PM. Delivered 12:32.
I asked the driver if he had many of these boxes. He said they had thousands. I asked if that was for the lower east side and he said just for this zip code - half his truck was full of them, he'd be delivering them for a week (probably an exaggeration). He thought they were iPods. I said no, they were the new operating system - blank stare. Software, programs, I said. For the iPod he asked? No, for the Mac. That seemed to make sense to him. I told him he'd make a lot of people happy today. He smiled and headed on to the next block.

Just received my copy (Montreal), time to archive and install.
I'm hoping I don't get that blue screen of death that is being reported on Apple Discussions.

Well if you bought it September 9th, you wouldn't qualify for the up to date program...
Not necessarily... when you register for UTD, Apple only asks you for your date of purchase.
Yes, necessarily. To qualify, you had to make the purchase on or after October 1st.
The automated system asks for the date of purchase and the serial number. If you enter September 9th for your date of purchase, the system rejects you.
Just shipped from Amazon, woot! Should be here by Monday or so (not really complaining, got it for $109 total, no tax + no shipping fee )
)What would happen if you entered a date after Oct 1st and your serial number?
Would it work though is what I'm asking? I'd assume that if you registered your serial number before Oct 1 and then put in a different date of purchase later with that serial number that it wouldn't work?
It doesn't matter. It's against the law and against forum rules to suggest doing so.
Gotcha. Well I won't ask anymore then because I don't want to be banned from the forums... I need macbook rumors
Changes to status
Looks like institutional purchases have been moved back, at least my media set for my volume purchase. The licensing documents are on the way though, just the media sets are delayed. From this mornings email:
It was set to ship by Oct 26. It OK though, I kind of wanted to test it for a few weeks before deploying it over the entire lab, and my Powerbook.

I'm getting the same message.
But Apple said my MBP would be in last Thursday, and it came on the Monday. So I'm hopeful that Leopard will come tomorrow, a day early.
