Awaiting delivery of my new macpro at the moment. It's Wednesday morning here in Ireland and according to UPS tracking it departed Incheon in Korea about four hours ago.
Hoping to have this by the weekend. After fifteen years of pc use, you can probably tell I'm rather excited to get started on this new adventure.
What's the chances of getting a Friday delivery do you think?
 
I'm living in Ireland but seemingly because I added a couple of extras, machine had to be shipped from overseas. And yes I'm excited and considering I'm in my late forties, it takes a lot to excite me these days.

haha you live in ireland, that's really really nice =D . Everything I ordered from Apple was shipped from Ireland. Bad . So which extras did u order ? I think the Mac Pro will be arrived this friday. What does apple say if you check the order status. There is a date of delivery ! Go to Apple Store and login to check order status.
 
Only extras ordered were anti glare screen and 320 gig hard drive. Hardly much out of the ordinary you would think.
However apple order update gives a delivery of tomorrow, so looks like I'll have a busy weekend
 
Err, you ordered a Mac Pro with a built-in anti glare screen? I'd like to know how...


Sounds like you bought a MacBook Pro, not a Mac Pro. All laptops ship from China, whereas Mac Pros generally come from Cork.

lol that's the thing with Mac Pro's and MacBook Pro's. 99% of people I know can't say what's the difference between a MacBook Pro and a Mac Pro. Serious !

A couple VIAGRA pills could change that. Lol. Sorry, couldn't resist. :D
Not sure if your getting a mac pro or a macbook pro but congrats. Its a little different system but once you get rolling, you will be glad you switched.
 
Woops. Sorry, of course it's a macbook pro I ordered. Extremely red faced at the minute. Thankfully, haven't reached the viagra stage yet, might be going a touch senile though.
