Just ordered mine; base 27" with 1TB Fusion Drive. Thanks to EDU discount came in at $2043 with AppleCare. Will order the RAM I need to install separately. Woo Hoo! Now I just need to wait until Dec 24-31..
 
Done

Got my CTO order complete for the 27" by 12:03 AM PDT.

Went with the 3.4GHz Quad-Core i7, GTX 680MX, and 1TB Fusion drive. Didn't add memory since it is user upgradeable.

Earliest date of delivery is quoted as Dec 21st. The latest 28th.

Merry Christmas! God Bless Us Everyone!
 
Please no more comments like this, ever.

hate to burst your bubble but the store would be down by now if it was coming out at midnight pacific time.

people pretend like they know, but they don't. Apple will do what it wants when it wants and updating a webpage does not require shutting websites down for hours like apple sometimes does. Mines on it's way and thank god I do not listen to many people on these threads or I could have been asleep! :D

Interesting you got the 28th. I got 24th-31st for my system (same as yours with regular 1TB disk). Did you pick the faster shipping?
 
As some of us are basking in the glee of a new Apple product order (ok, need to process that at a later date now that I've actually said that out loud) I'm feeling for those of you who don't have the option to order yet.

Mine too delivers December 21-28. Apple likes to under promise on their delivery estimate so I feel pretty certain that it will arrive on the 21st, if not earlier.

...and, I got the high end 27" BTO - added the fusion drive.

:D :apple: :)
 
ordered! :D

My dog woke me at just the right moment

I was just too tired to wait up and went to bed. My dog woke me up at midnight on the dot, so I thought I might as well check the store. Good doggie! :) I ordered my 27", with a delivery estimate of December 24-31. Still have to make my 2007 last another month, but at least my new computer is finally in sight!
 
Man sometimes i hate the Danish VAT.

High-end 21.5" + fusion = 11279 kr. (1967$) + Danish VAT 2838 kr. (495$)

Oh well.
 
how does Apple verify education discount?

saved $50 on education discount. I was just curious how Apple actually verifies that someone goes to school and is eligible for the discount? It seems anyone can use the education store.
 
Ordered a 27'' i5, gtx 680mx, 8gb, 1tb standard
Got a 270€ discount because of Apple on Campus.
Original price: 2200€ and I payed: 1930.

Edit: My birthday is on December 28th. Hope for a nice gift :)
 
I see delivery estimates slipping slightly. However, we don't really know how many are being ordered at the moment. I wonder how soon until the delivery dates really start moving later into January.

BTW, is anyone else on here at all concerned about purchasing this "first off the line" batch of a newly re-engineered product like this? I know conventional wisdom suggested we wait until the manufacturing process had run a while. Any thoughts on this?
 
Just ordered my first Mac! :D

27-inch iMac
  • 3.2GHz Quad-core Intel Core i5, Turbo Boost up to 3.6GHz
  • 8GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x4GB
  • 1TB Serial ATA Drive @ 7200 rpm
  • NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675MX 1GB GDDR5
  • Magic Trackpad
  • Apple Wireless Keyboard (English) & User's Guide
  • Accessory Kit
 
it says delivery 3-4 weeks but delivery date 7th of january :( so I guess I have to prepare for some patience.
