Told ya.


I hope you all enjoy your black tee's! I have two and may consider selling one... iPhone shipped to Australia in exchange, hell I'll throw in the "Add a new Mac to your Mac" poster.

The staff ones are incredibly dull and really glad the black ones as I previously posted are for the customers. Hopefully I will be able to update you guys some more?

Cheers,

My bitch roommate who sleeps 10 hours a day has apparently slept through the fedex guy ringing our buzzer, judging by my updated tracking information. Not happy. Someone is getting thrown off the f*ckin roof tonight. :mad:
 
I got mine in Baltimore about 10am. It's my birthday so I had taken off from work and had to drive down and get it. The package was so small (it could fit through most mail slots) that it had disappeared on top of my desk. This post is the last thing I do before I start the install.
 
Tnt

Just called TNT and they said that Apple have told them not to worry about delivering everything on time today. They are delivering some tomorrow, regardless of the predicted shipping date.

I was given this status:
26 Oct 2007 15:34 London Heathrow Depot Company Closed On Delivery Attempt
26 Oct 2007 08:42 London Heathrow Depot Out For Delivery
25 Oct 2007 21:57 Nuneaton Shipped From Originating Depot

Even though my company was never closed! Apparently this status really means that your delivery wont turn up today because they are overloaded with orders.

This kinda makes a problem for people that are getting deliveries to their company addresses since not many post rooms work weekends - this would mean that I would have to reschedule a delivery for some time next week instead!

FOOLS!
 
was supposed to get delivery by 10:30am today, now delivery by 5pm because of the bad weather!! itd didnt rain for months, it just had to pour today!!!!

So sorry to hear! My wife is bringing mine to the office to install on my MBP. It arrived at 10:51. (Durham,NC)

Mine is a Family Pack. Wonder if it shipped from a different location or why it is here and yours delayed? I ordered from Apple, did you or a 3rd party?

Anyway, can't wait!

I like how my shipment was to be delivered by 10:30AM today and Apple called in a delivery update and now it's 4PM. No sweat since I'll be still at work. BTW, Apple waived all signature requirements.

About the family pack. Is there any reason neighbors couldn't share an install disk?
Legally, yes. Reality, no.
How would Apple police the household thing
They don't, yet.
 
FFS TNT have 30 mins to get here with it or else i will verbally cut one of their staff a new one!!!

meant to be here before half ten, that got bumped to anytime before 6, it's half five now, and i've seen pretty much every other delivery company under the sun drive past my house except a TNT truck.

I'm seriously not happy :mad:
 
I have 4 macs and only buy individual. No way to police this. It always installs on all macs..

I'm trying to leave my pirating ways behind me. It feels good, you should try it.

iWork now requires a serial number, soon the OS might as well.

got mine about a hour ago...
so that'd be 10:30 am Central time.

Looks good, but can't install yet. Going out of town today and need to clean my laptop first...
 
Slight delay...

FYI

Just got off the phone with FedEx. Leopard was scheduled for delivery by 10:30am, but just noticed they changed that to "Delay beyond our control". The FedEx rep said "They are just scanning them all in as delayed because there are so many that they can't accurately indicate a delivery time, but that it will get there today." Too bad Time Machine only works in reverse. What if it could speed things up too? Now that would be a rad new feature!

EDIT: Hmmm...now it says "Future delivery requested"....
 
Customer T-shirt

I have been wearing this offical one for 3 days now :p First to get it straight from the press. Picture from the back, in front there is a small apple-logo.

Sadly, that's all for me. Leopard doesn't run on my current setup. Seems that i really do have to shell out the money for the Macbook before the christmas. I was expecting Macbook update for the release of Leopard, but Apple haven't released new hardware on Fridays so far i can remember. Still a change for an update?

I got that as well even though the status update said it was on route for delivery. This was even after I took time off of work to take care of this. At least I had the pre-sign already filled out and posted. I was not happy having to wait until I get home.
 
Missed FedX Delivery

Well, FedX arrived at my house at 11:51AM this morning with my copy of Leopard and of course I was in the shower and was unable to sign for it. I've rescheduled a second attempt delivery and hopefully in a couple of hours I'll have it and my system will upgraded.

People say what they will about Apple, but the last couple of OS updates have all been delivered to me at Apples expense before their official release time.
 
I wish the shirt had either:

a) The logo much larger on the the front (covering most of the front)

or

b) The logo moved over to the left, like on a polo shirt

Not that it matters for me, since I already have my Leopard and won't be going to the Apple Store. I just don't like to miss an opportunity to criticize the hard work of others. ;)
 
So anyone can get a T-shirt? Or is it with the purchase of Leopard? I think I'm goin to be goin since I didn't order it online and I don't have to work. Should be interesting.

First 500 people get shirts, I don't think you need to buy Leopard. I am planning on going to my Apple store to get a shirt and test drive Leopard, but I can't afford to buy it yet, not today anyway.
