Re: Re: swedish shipment 7-10 days!
I think Genie has a lot more fans than that now!!
By the way, what is this fashion for photos of women with G5s? That's the third such gallery I've seen. Is it a secretive marketing campaign by Apple for men? ("Who needs a flash car, chicks love G5s!") or for women? ("Who needs a man, I've got a G5!")

Re: Re: Speaking of noise...
no, the startup noise is the same, but I've noticed as it starts up the main fans rev really fast for like a second (maybe to clear out any dust?) and then winds down (which kinda sounds like an engine rev)... i'm guessing that's what he heard on the phone.

"You will buy a G5"... Nope, does nothing for me!
To hell with the chant, your pictures were a lot more convincing!! By the way, do the European designers call those "aluminium" dresses? ;D

Have they been spotted in any stores (other than LA and Plano)? I'd drive to friggin' Minneapolis if I had to.
We have several hundred in transit...
I just got confirmation that we are receiving several hundred dual G5 on Monday, more than enough to cover the back orders. Contact me via e-mail if you want to order one, end of quarter and deals are flying...

Does her other boyfriend have a loud car? could have been him leaving

1GB density RAM
I have two sticks of 1GB density RAM sitting on my desk right now. I received them one month ago, in anticipation of an 8/29 ship date on my Dual G5.
I got them from DataMem.com (2GB kit, DM50 613x2). They have the best price I have seen.
My machine, ordered immediately when Apple's website went live after the keynote (with 9800 card and 1x250GB drive), is still estimated to ship 9/29. I hope it doesn't get bumped again.

Hello All,
I haven't seen anyone mention this yet so:
There are definetly Mac OS update coupons in the G5 boxes. However, it does not say if they are good for updates/upgrades to Panther. Since this is my first Mac I'm not sure what it means. I'll try to attach a picture of the coupon shortly. Actually there are 3 coupons label 1,2, and 3.
Regards,

AND IMPORTANT APPLE Software PROOF-Of-PURCHASE Coupons
So make sure to look in your paperwork package.

Thoese coupons are nothing new. I've got them with every MAc I've bought over the past few years.
argh.....
I friggin order August 1 and the ship date has remained the same the entire time - Oct. 14. I upgraded to 10.2.8 on my ibook and it started crashing and now doesn't start and still people are getting their G5's before me. It's really quite bothersome. I'm about ready to cancel my developer order and go to the Apple Store at Lenox and get whatever the hell they have. It's really annoying.....
Oh, and at least in my luck, I ordered as a student developer and after a call I was told that there was no way to expedite my order regardless of the whole student thing and the STUDENT developer discount..... what a drag. Anyone else need to gripe?
