What up yaya! Been a minute since I’ve been on one of these threads (S6 and 12 Pro haha) I got a base 8 core 14 inch to replace my 2014 15 inch. Don’t need the power but the screen sold me.
Oh my date changed back to 26th

I was told via chat that if I take my power supply to the Apple Store they can swap it for the 96W one and only pay the $20 in the store. Let’s see if that plays out like that.
I am wondering if these are shipping from China or they are already stockpiled in the states?
Hi!! How are you? How come I didn’t see you for iPhone 13 pre-order and Apple Watch pre-order date? You didn’t upgrade this year or what? It was a fun hectic year. Lots happened.

Follow along this thread. The question that you just asked has been answered on a previous post :)

If you read the thread from Monday morning, you can see the full meltdown @TheYayAreaLiving had.

Am I the only person who ordered a real base 14 with the 8 core instead of 10? Lol
No you aren't, there are at least two of us now, haha. My MacBook has always been my secondary machine to use in bed, on the couch, when I travel, etc. so I don't need it to be specced out. I always just get the cheapest option. My iMac is my primary machine and that's the one I do a custom build on.

My M1 MacBook Air suits my needs perfectly fine, but hot damn the new Pro had me drooling and I just couldn't resist. I put way too much mileage on my Apple Card this year!
 
16/max with default setting (32GB memory and 1TB storage), placed the order at about 11:04 am PST. Expected to deliver Oct 26. Any chance I would get it on Oct. 25? :)

So a noob question…
„Where“ exactly on apple website do I ask about express shipping? (I always feel a little lost if I look for ways to contact them…)
And then just ask nicely if they can change standard shipping to express shipping? Without giving any reason or anything or doesn’t ink work if you have „Lauch day“ as start of your delivery window…?

I have standard shipping…

Good evening Y'all...

Another night has passed by. We are exact 6 days away... Whopping 144 hours... 8640 minutes...518,400 seconds away ⏳

I was really hoping to receive a "UPS Origin Scan" being generated today. However, that did not happen. I have a feeling sometime tomorrow some of you lucky ones will have the "Origin Scan" from UPS. It would be nice if our UPS scans get generated overnight. Rest assured, they will start to appear soon. Stay on the lookout. This also seems like a very long week. But, not to worry... we have each other in here. I'm also happy to report the majority of us have our arrival date tagline back. The majority of you also saw your shipment date being moved up. Congratulations.

The wait continues... The wait continues for the industry-leading performance chip...Tomorrow is another day!!!

If anyone is going to get it on Oct. 25th... It will be the people in Australia...

Achoooo... @LFC2020
 
When an app goes to full screen, turn on black bar mode and nobody notices it. If it isn't a permanent solution, it's at least a very simple temporary one.
Hate to quote myself, but this seems to be the route Apple has taken as well:
https://www.macrumors.com/2021/10/19/macbook-pro-mouse-pointer-and-notch/
When macOS apps are in full-screen mode, Apple adds an artificial black bar to the top of the display that hides the notch. Developers can, however, opt to allow their apps to make full use of the entire screen real estate, notch included.
 
Ordered a 16/Max/64gb/32/4TB with 4-5 week delivery mid/late November. There was no option for express shipping for me
