Was the question "How long does it take to pull your hair out one strand at a time?"



Bah! Received an e-mail from the online apple store while I was sleeping, thought it was an order update, turned out to just be a questionnaire.

6/13 3-4 weeker here from Japan. A lot of the 6/13 non-US countries are getting theirs except for japan :(
 
i gotta feelin, that tonights gonna be a good night ;)


12ers Unite! holler! :eek::cool:

Tell me about it.. several of the same orders as me have been shipped. :(
I'm not mad or anything, but I'm getting anxious.. And then afraid if I can't be there/awake to sign for the order. :p

All of the Best Buy's in my area (Pittsburgh, PA) except maybe one aren't authorized to sell Apple computers.. my area is so decrepit.


Apple know the answer to that one already.

3-4 weeks

Well that made me laugh quite loudly to myself. +1
 
Feeling a bit annoyed now, I ordered on the 12th and I'm still Processing. Tempted to phone Apple tomorrow when their phone lines open and ask what's going on.

Same mate, also in UK. I really thought today would be the day it moved from processing to preparing because everyone was saying how they were moving along 1 day ahead of schedule.
Hopefully when I wake up there is some good news.

I've been stuck at preparing for shipment for over 24 hours. I now know for a fact that those damn workers are sleeping on the job.

Really? That's pretty ignorant of you to blame the workers that earn less than what most of us make in a single day, if even that, for a entire month's work in a factory doing redundant tasks.

Chances are that yours finished and waiting for the next FedEx pickup, or could be they are waiting for a shipment on parts before they start production of your configuration.

Eh, they fulfill BTO orders at random per day order.. usually if somebody with a later ship window gets sent out before you, it's because:

a. They aren't from the U.S.
b. They ordered a base model (2.3 etc), which Apple is churning out rather quickly.

Expect movement tonight or tomorrow night. The premier drawback is definitely on the SSDs, screens don't pose an issue anymore, and with all the 2.3's shipped out with 16GB ram, I don't believe that they are the reason for hold-up. I feel that even construction isn't the culprit, with retail stores (other than Apple brick-and-mortar stores) receiving large amounts of rMBPs.

I'm not from the US and I ordered the 2.6GHz base model ;)
 
While I was filling in my order in the spreadsheet, i saw the troll going to work.. canceling a lot of the 6/18 and 6/19 orders. I quickly fixed it but one order really was cancelled and i switched it to an active order oh well..
 
someone seriously messed with the spreadsheet again. 3-5 weekers all were put to Shipped status, corrected mine.
 
I like that this thread is turning into a "I have a first world problem... my rMBP isn't coming soon enough."

...and, yeah, I'm one of the people with a first world problem. :)

Ordered on the 19th. :-/
 
Okay, never mind someone decided to remove the conditional formatting once again. This is the last time I am going to fix it.
 
Do you think we have got a big enough sample size now to perhaps lock down all of the spreadsheet apart from the ones such as shipping status/delivery. Is that possible?

I'm chinese. I get a free pass to say that.
