I've decided to order a standard config 2.6ghz retina MPB. Apple is estimating 3-4 weeks, Amazon has no estimate as it's out of stock. Any ideas which will come in faster from previous releases, or recommendations? Does Apple still give resellers stock or do they fill their own orders first? I can save some money off the lack of sales tax from amazon and get essentially 6% off amazon gift cards through a local store, but the apple store gives $200 off that model plus the $100 gift card through the education store. I did the math and Amazon saves me a little bit of money, but if it's going to take forever to come in it's not worth it. Thoughts?
