Haha, nice, I guess everyone is out to lunch while she holds up the fort to ward off all us pesky Mac Pro customers.
I submitted it. We'll see what happens. Actually...I hope that means shipping the 9th, not just available for order. Let's see if Apple support pulls through for me again...I'll be back in a second
EDIT: Darn, chat isn't available at the moment. I'll check back again in a bit.
Peace,

What the heck? When I chatted with a rep just now, he said they didn't know when they would be available. Oh well, at this point, it's pretty obvious we will be able to at least order them on August 9th! 🙂

Okay. Called them on the phone. The rep read me the memo verbatim and it says "New Mac Pro family available for order August 9th." So, hopefully that means order the 9th, shipping the 9th or 10th, but she could not confirm that, or whether this would be a pre-order or not on the 9th. So, patience for a week and a half, and then we'll know.
Peace,

My guess is 24 hour shipping on the 9th when they first come out. But with BTO options, it might be a little longer for shipping.
Awesome! I really hope it doesn't take them like a week to start shipping after the 9th.
