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.
So is the education discount is better then veterans or is it the same?
 
Having lived with a 2019 Touch ID MBP and non-touch ID wired keyboard for a few years, it just comes down to whether you can be bothered to reach over to another keyboard instead of spending $200. It would not be a problem with Face ID. It would work from any camera, including the 5K. Apple is just being Apple...
When in clamshell mode, having TouchId on the keyboard is bee’s knee’s!!
 
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.
Honestly this is probably my best bet. I don’t want anymore potential delays. 🤣

what?? It's in Louisville. KY and It is going to take 4 days to get to me? Really? This is the longest it has taken a package to get to me ever, and I'm 71.

You will not face anymore delays. Import Scan has kicked in. This is the final clearance. So you are all safe.

Your 💻 is just waiting to get on board into the last final flight. If you do decide to hold it at CC UPS (main UPS in your area)… once it arrives to the facility, the system will flag it to put on hold per requested by customer and they will keep the package at the hub until you pick it up. The 💻 will not be loaded into the delivery truck ;)

You can also call UPS and double check the date with them and they will confirm it with you :)

Do what’s convenient and comfortable for you! Big day for you tomorrow.

For the first time ever I emailed Tim Cook this morning, about the order processing and concerning shipping delays the magnitude I haven't seen in over 25 years. I do not expect anything other than a canned response from Tim's team - but if I get anything substantive I will share it with the board. I am really fed up but as consumer's there is only so much we can do.

Two words - Universal Control
 
Nice to see the backlit keyboard.
My backlit keyboard is always on. I leave it on the lowest brightness setting which is plenty for me. 👌

Well we had the same tracking until now but now I'm in a warehouse and held at customs and have no date once again. So you're still doing better than me, lol
