Ok im making a new doc, how do you guys wanna do it. Public like usual which means people will mess it up? Or should we have a few admins who will edit stuff.

You do know if you are logged into Google Docs, you are able to login and revert the file in the revision history? So we can just restore it now with no problem. I just realized this after I manually restored it from a backup LOL.

Might be best to have some admins if some of you are up for it. I'm travelling to Alaska this weekend so can't really help out. The spreadsheet is one of the coolest/nerdiest things I've seen but I love it and it sucks some people get off on messing it up.

Then we can make a set format to post in this thread for future updates and you will still have the latest data from recently before it got messed up.
 
VERY OFF TOPIC:

I have a guess why the icon in the order status page sometimes turns into a picture of a package.

The Apple page has a "preferred" image, specifically the gift card icon or the macbook pro icon or so on, but when those images don't get properly downloaded to the remote computer's browser, it defaults to the package icon.

My observations:

1. On a very good connection (my university), it has never happened.
2. On an average connection (my home), it happens rarely.
3. On an unreliable connection (my cell phone), it happens unusually often.
4. If you tell AdBlockPlus that the icon is an ad, it always defaults to the package icon.
5. If you simply refresh your page, it goes away.

Is that a fair guess, or does someone else have any better ideas?
 
Yes, I have noticed that Anon user 3100 is the one who is always defacing xD. On a side note, the spread is destroyed again.

What icon are you talking about? Can you take a screenshot?
 
So to answer myself. The next flight is FXD28 leaving at 8:30PM CST or 5:30AM PDT. So early tomorrow morning and will go via Anchorage and arrive in Memphis ~ 1AM on Sunday morning CDT so 11PM on Saturday night PDT. Then it will travel towards your city on a variety of different options. Hoping for early next week delivery!!

The other option is from Anchorage it instead goes to Indianapolis on FXD22 and arrives about an hour earlier. My Macbook Air went on the Indianapolis flight from Anchorage.

The direct flight from Shanghai to Memphis is FXD90 that is about to arrive in the next hour or so.
How the hell do you figure all that info out? My tracking never shows that.
 
Someone should change the title of this thread to more accurately describe its content/purpose. Perhaps "recurring spreadsheet restoration"?

How about just lock the spreadsheet and give only a couple of people access to it so they can manually update it when someone posts their status change here.

I've just called the nearest Apple Store (I'm italian, I've called the Bologna one): they've sold the last RMBP this morning, but next week other RMBP will arrive.
Damn, I don't know what to do. :confused:

You should cancel and go get it at apple retail store. That's way is faster as you didn't configure your setup at all. Wake up early and go line up before anyone does.

from what i figured out from this thread is that if you're not BTO, your mac ships to apple store in your country then they ship it to you. In my case apple only has an online store in my country so my rMBP is going to be shipped to europe then to me from there (that's what apple rep told me)

so maybe even though it's still showing processing it might have already been sent to your local apple store, I don't know why they don't just ship them to us..
 
Ok with us seeing the 2-3 weekers going out early now... anybody hazard a guess when mine will be arriving... ordered 13th - due for delivery 12th-18th in london.. Stock 2.3-8-256...

I only ask as I have accountancy finals on the 23-24-25 July and I'm going to a wedding in spain next friday and I'm desperate to be able to take it to study as my current "laptop" weighs around 6.5-7.5 pounds (standard/extended battery) and only lasts around 30 mins these days so is a complete nightmare... and am somewhat desperate to have something lighter to both take to class and take to spain!!!!

Cheers... NO TROLLING VALID REASON FOR ASKING!!!! LOL

Since you have ordered stock keep trying to check with your local stores, 12-18th is really hard if not impossible to get by next friday, since we with 1st-8th or less didn't start getting ours yet.
