That or a bulk insert on their DB to switch all our order status to "shipped"
Well we can hope.
THAT would tick a lot of people off. JUST as they're finally getting their new Mac Pros with good graphics and have received their displays for them... BAM. New ones. Apple's done stranger things. Look at the puck mouse...

That would surely piss me off.
Just called Apple. No free overnight shipping for me... All they could offer me was the same ship date I already knew: Feb. 13
Which sucks. I did order as soon as the store went back online after all...

After following this thread I decided to join MacRumors and give my 2 cents.
I called Apple and spoke to someone and told them I had a friend who purchased the same MP plus a WiFi 7 days after me and it already shipped. He told me that he bet his job that it was impossible so I pulled out my friend Order # and whala he was speechless.
After a few rounds with him and managers I got expedited shipping and that was it. They made up more excuses than I could shake a stick at - I mean WTF just be honest tell me you have no idea why.
I did find out that mine is shipping from Fullerton, CA if that helps anyone?

My tracking number finally works, and it says my order is on the FedEx truck and scheduled to arrive TODAY.
I'm in San Diego and it shipped from Fullerton (LA Area), using the free shipping method. As far as I can tell, I should be the first one to actually report having the an 8800 GT equipped Mac Pro in my hands

....but I don't have it plugged into my UPS yet.
What UPS system are you using? I have never used a UPS, as this will be my first desktop in a long, long time. Could you send any links to recommended UPS for the Mac Pro?
Just shipping! I already had an Apple (friends and family) discount and she said she couldn't do any better. That was fine, but I just wanted to find out if there is any method to the madness and apparently not. I didn't care about an additional discount I just wanted to prove a point and know they know.
She did say that it doesn't matter how you purchase it, (i.e. - ADC, Military, Employee or other) it all goes into the shipping "queue" which was originally established that it was a "first come first serve basis" ya right!
