What size screen MacBook Pro (2021) did you order?

Woo hoo! Congratulations!!! That import scan just got real. Are you able to see or track down the scheduled flights? I wonder if it will be in your city later today? Also, are you going to wait for the driver or picking it up at the CC UPS hub?

I’m going to attempt to track down the flight. Traditionally UPS is pretty good about staying on schedule once they get to the local hub for sorting before delivery.

I’m actually thinking about whether I should get it delivered or pick it up. My neighborhood basically has a non-existent crime rate. 😂
 
I got a "warehouse scan" in Louisville, the estimated delivery date disappeared again, and now my tracking has this:

"UPS is holding the cargo at a secure facility, pending instructions and agreement."

So I guess I'm stuck in customs for awhile now.

When you do this to hide the notch, are you effectively limiting your screen back down to 16” from the 16.2”?
Exactly, menu bar and notch always on full display. 👇

Until they do. I just prefer pick up at cc to limit any mishaps in the truck in the final mile. And it’s in my hands and set up before ups driver tools down my street. So, yes, I’m too excited to wait.
 
Can anyone with a new 16" MBP Pro Max M1 measure distance from end of case to beginning and end of keyboard? Trying to figure out how comfortable typing on it is going to be, if I need keyboard/mouse/trackpad in desk tray or on top of oak desk?

Thanks for ride sharing. I have nothing, lol
This help?

Hmm, what’s Apple’s delivery date show?

Making a change now may cause a delay in your delivery. If you put a "Hold at CC" or some other UPS locker location, they will have to process it, accept it, change it and it won't be official until they confirm it which will show up in your shipment status. The potential is that your MBP gets on the truck and doesn't get delivered b/c of the change - or there's no attempt made at all tomorrow just b/c it's getting diverted. Maybe let it ride for tomorrow, as is.
 
The funny thing is, when my laptop was stuck in Zhengzhou for a week, I got these two tracking updates:

11/02/2021
11:50 A.M.
UPS has received the information needed to submit your package for clearance.
11/01/2021
5:12 P.M.
UPS initiated contact with receiver or importer for clearance information. Once received, UPS will submit for clearance.
Louisville, KY, United States

Was hoping that this would lead to fast customs clearance, but I guess not? A cursory google makes it seem like I could be stuck like this for a few days.
 
I played them all over and over, no issues here, hmmm. 🤔 maybe you have a faulty M1 pro chip. 😳 joking 😂
Did you change to the highest resolution? You also have to make sure you play it with the highest resolution plus you have to scroll up and down. Ur not doing it right, 😂
 
Just talked to Apple. If it is in ZhengZhou, CN, UPS does not have it yet. It is still with the, and I quote "Supplier" Look at the second line:

Your package is in transit. We're updating plans to schedule your delivery. /
The package will be forwarded to a UPS facility in the destination city. ZhengZhou, China

WoopieThat
That's odd. My assumption is that if the package is in ZhengZhou, CN, it is UPS's hands. Otherwise, why would it show up as an entry in UPS tracking?
 
The apple edu site where you don't have to show them ID 😁 no discounts on the cloth though.

Huh… you’re right. The edu store shows full price whereas the veteran’s store has the 10% off at $17.10. I guess that the edu store only has certain items eligible for the discount. Never paid attention to that. Still not showing any stock though.
