I got mine at 9:30am this morning :) AWESOME.

Not that it makes any difference because I dont finish work till 4:30pm. Nearly all my stuffs backed up and ready to go, just need to backup iCal, Address Book, Safari bookmarks.

Although I got HL2 last week so I've been playing counter strike:source everynight for a good few hours, so maybe I wont get to spend much time with my Mac. Still, I suppose Tiger can be installing while I shoot my friends on CS!

Still allocated for delivery... but the TNT woman who phoned me yesterday said it would arrive today. Although I'm curious as to why TNT called me to check if I would be in to receive Tiger - did anyone else have this happen to them?

Nice man from TNT delivered my Up-To-Date copy this morning, yeah!

My retail version should be waiting for me at work later today, before I burn over to the Apple Store Regents St. to check out what's going down. See you there!

the only problem is.. i'm in uni halls so it could arrive any time and i wouldn't know! they only update the parcel list once a day i think as well so it could be there but i might not know!

ALSO the problem could be TNT in West Midlands (Nuneaton included i think) had power failure last nights so deliveries are 3 hours behind

This is my first post from Tiger. Wow it is so cool. There are lost of really nice features in here that I have not heard mentioned before. On a PowerBook if you remove the power connector it automatically dims your screen for you just a bit. When you down load a Widget it goes strainght into your dashboard, you don't need to install it of anything. The only annoying thing that I cant fix is when you download an application through Safari it gives you an alert message hat I cant get rid of. I am sure there must be a way. Mail is cool and spotlight is so so quick! Very impressed.

That ripple effect you get with dashboard works fine with my PowerBook but not my 1.42GHz DP G4? I would have thought they would have supported the G4 towers. Ah well not the end of the world! I hope you all get yours as soon as possible to enjoy this great OS.

Are you sure about this? Mine was at Nuneaton, but the site clearly states it left at 0802 for delivery.

O Donny Boy
It has arrived...

I've just [within the last five minutes] received my copy of Tiger!! Oh yes... best thing is I only actually ordered it yesterday morning!!

Fan-blooming-tastic... :D

Here's to a bank holiday weekend of "investigation" -- the better half isn't going to be too thrilled I can tell you. Oh well... ;)

PS. Location = Donny in [quite nice and sunny for the moment] South Yorkshire...

PPS. The package stinks of cigs!!!

I heard that for Donny the weather widget has a permanent rain cloud. They didn't bother putting the sun symbol in (saves on compiling space) :cool: <- those are S-U-N G-L-A-S-S-E-S.

This is comming from someone from Hull...... :rolleyes: Glad you got it today. Tiger is so cool!
