There will almost definitely not be any new products there when the store comes back up, so anyone procrastinating sleep because of this, go to bed right now.

Basically.

Plus, it's just a computer, chill. They're not going to run out, if you're even thinking of ordering one. :cool:

(in whiny kid voice) but i don't want to go to bed!

but i should...i have to get up in three hours....ugh....
 
here's a fun .HTML code that will auto refresh the Apple Store (US) in Safari every 5 seconds... for anyone who cares...

Code:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5">
</head>
<body>
<FRAMESET>
<FRAME src="http://store.apple.com/">
</FRAMESET>
</body>
</html>

and i really hope this isn't just maintenance... that would be so cruel! please be new iMacs!!

That is fun!
 
the only thing i can see being updated at this point are new iMacs and Mac Minis for North America only, as stock might be low on this continent only, but that's a really big stretch... and i don't think apple has ever done something like that before. even though that last MacScoop rumor states they would be updated in the next 4 weeks depending on product stocks...

if it's just maintenance, well damn... are they redesigning the site? it's been over 4 hours. that's so pretty serious maintenance.
 
I'd just like to make it clear that I'm not staying up because the Apple Store is down and I want to see what's changed... I'm up because I got interrupted from my first listen to NIN's Ghosts I - IV by a 2 hour and 40 minute long phone call. :mad:

The things I do for girls. :rolleyes:
 
actually... i'm now willing to bet there will be new iMacs when the store comes back online...

i just checked the special deals on refurbished macs in all the apple stores. these stores don't have any more "limited special offer" current generation imacs:

Australia
Japan
Netherlands
Denmark
Hong Kong

however, it seems there are only 20" current generation "limited special offers" on iMacs in the UK store and France Store... seems the 24" are all gone there, but the Italian store still has the 24" Core 2 Extreme model in the refurbished mac's section, but no 20" iMac models...
 
Apple Cinema Displays need a new revision and a price adjustment. They are screamingly expensive compared to their counterparts. And heres hoping for new 23" ACD :)
 
Thats why I dont buy cinema displays. I dont even know what advantage they offer over third party displays (if someone knows this please post below :). Theyre just really over priced.

The LCD panels used in the Cinemas are S-IPS which display better color than any other panel type and unfortunately the side effect is that they cost a lot more.
 
Ow well, Site is up and cant notic e any large difference at the moment.
 
...that's funny, I've got:

New Penryn based iMac 24inch with 2Gb RAM Standard for $1799
New Penryn based Mac mini for $599 with 2Gb RAM
New Cinema display with $250 rebate
iPhones from $249
iPods from $29

.....ah s**t, I've just woken up and hit the refresh key after dozing off waiting.....ah well......nothing to report:D:D:D...sorry, couldn't resist

Yes, as noted they are S-IPS monitors, and the nearest equivalent is probably the NEC 24" W-UXI which is $200 more. For the 23", actually they are just really underpriced :)
