I think back to my mac is just using wide area bonjour. You can do it yourself on Leopard without .mac. I think you can even do it yourself with Tiger but it is made much easier with Leopard (i.e. no extra downloads, command line etc). And with .mac they just make it a couple clicks to allow sharing and activate back to mac in preferences. Apple seems to put stuff in their OS that they don't make widely known that expert users can make use of then they make it more accessible on subsequent OS releases then they make it brainlessly easy. Most if not all .mac features can be duplicated yourself it just takes time and know how and troubleshooting and sometimes extra equipment and sometimes extra downloads and...um, I'll just .mac

Yeah I know there is a way to do it but the info is very hard to find... I've searched... and I don't feel like spending the time to get it up and running.
 
I see that mine shipped too but I cannot get any info on the Purolator website, did you call them?

Yeah, mine just shipped via Purolator as well, and I too cannot get any info on their website. In the past I have found that it usually take a few hours for the Purolator site to work with Apple tracking numbers.

Anyways, it says it should arrive on the 26th, but you never know with Purolator. I have had a lot of issues with them in the past. Hopefully, everything will turn out well this time. It would suck if they missed the Friday delivery!

Darn! I paid for expedited shipping and it says the delivery date is the 29th!! Ohh Well....

EDIT: I'm in Canada too, shipped via Puralator.
 
I just got the apple email mine has shipped by Purolator and says for the 26th. No update at the purolator site its not posted yet. I am in B.C. Canada :apple::apple::apple:
 
yeah not sure why some of you paid for shipping as it has been free shipping in which it said it will be delivered on the 26th. Mine says it is prepared for shipping :)

I thought if I paid for it, I'd get priority in shipping. Looks like that's not the case with a delivery date of the 29th. I ordered on announcement day (morning) too. We'll see what happens I guess.

I think the delivery date depends on the country. For example, I just looked at the US store and clicked on the "Pre-order now" and it shows "Ships: Delivers on October 26th". But in the Canada store the page shows "Ships: October 26th".

Actually when I ordered mine and on my order status for Canada it always said delivers on Oct. 26th.

Mine says to be delivered on the 25th, and i am in Montreal. Then again, I cannot get any information from the Purolator website.

Time will tell ;)
 
Until you post a photograph of the shipping box and the retail box and the DVD you are a liar.

This is not an insult. This is not personal. This thread requires photographs for any post to be credible. So any text post claiming possession is not believable.

Ha Ha. Multimedia, you are hilarious. I can almost hear the whimpering plea of your voice as you request photos of unboxing leopard dvds again and again and again. :p:D

I want them badly too...please help ease our pain people
 
Same scenario here.

I'm in Montreal, Apple says it is shipped overnite with Purolator but I can't see any tracking info...
 
Shipping

i'm from australia, and i pre-ordered my copy of leopard. i have checked the shipping status and found that my copy of leopard was shipped about 4 hours ago from posting this reply. which in AEST (Australian Eastern Standard Time) was about 2.00pm. I have found that according to the australian apple website our pre-ordered versions of leopard will be delivered on the 26th (friday) AEST which i believe is around 16 hours ahead of the US. As the US goes to sleep on their thursday night. Australia will be waking up to their new copies of Leopard.
 
I'm in BC Canada, and I just got an email on 24th stating that it has been shipped by Purolator and will deliver by 25th.

My UK order shipped on 24 Oct...but it says "Estimated Delivery Date 30 Oct 2007 (Subject to change)". :(

Me too - interesting that it originates from Sydney, same as my ATV. Maybe Sydney is the new Asia Pacific hub? Or maybe just for ANZ.

Must be rearing and ready to go on the first plane out of Sydney, although I got to transit point first :)

Cheers, Ed.

Apple Australia took over from Renaissaince as distributors here in NZ last December. Since then orders through them have been far quicker than previously
