Anyone outside of the U.S. of A. getting their 8800's shipped? I'm in Canada and ordered on Jan. 20 and still says Not Yet Shipped. I also called Apple to support yesterday to see what was up and was given free expedited shipping.

I also live in Canada and I just called Apple. Right away they gave me free express shipping. After I got off the line with apple, I call my credit card company. I was charged for me new Mac on Feb.6 Hopefully I will get it next week :) I placed my order Jan.9 at 1:30 AM.
 
My pre-auth disappeared. I now have 3 charges from Apple -$1.00 -$3.000.50 and -$1.00 again. Looks like this is the final charge and it will ship soon! I ordered last night!

I'm happy for you and all...really, I am. But, hearing that just makes me want to puke.

I'm gonna go throw-up now.

Are the 2 x -$1.00 normal?

Anyone make any progress with Apple on why this is happening?

I am going to try calling them again in a couple minutes and hounding them for answers.

There's no reason someone ordering TODAY should have theirs being shipped before me.

Well, it's not conclusive yet. It could very well be just with that machine. It could be software, it could be hardware, it could be a faulty install bug from office 2008, it could be, it could be... Let's wait and see if more experience the same trouble before we ... at least let me hope my machine won't be like this.

While my Apple Order status hasn't changed & I've gotten no e-mail announcing shipment, I do see that today up in the day sometime my Mastercard got 2 charges from Apple; 1 for $1 (don't know what that's about), and 1 for the cost of the MacPro.

So hopefully, HOPEFULLY, will ship today.

2.8 GHz 8 core MacPro with Airport Extreme wireless card & a 1terabyte hard drive.

I was worried the larger hard drive was holding it up.

Ordered 1-8-08. Estimated ship date was 2-13-08, arrival 2-19-08.

Hope it gets on a Fed. Ex. truck & on the road today!!!

The $1 is just to make sure the account is valid. It won't stay on your account. According to Visa and MasterCard rules, the merchant isn't allowed to charge your account for the full amount until the item is shipped, so sounds as if your computer is on the way (lucky you).:)

That doesn't make sense... why did a few others say that they got their shipping notices in the evening? That they checked at 4:30 and say prepped and at 6:30 saw shipped?? Or... maybe yours/mine was in that load and we won't get the notices until the system propogates tonight.... remember, some others showed that once they got their shipping notice that the item had already shipped.

(i'm at a loss for words)
 
Anyone with a 8800GT got any comments on how quiet the Mac Pro is? Is there any increase in fan noise over the Radeon card?
