Apple Store is down. New Mac Pros?

[akadmon]

Haha - made you look! But it it really is down,

Yes it is. It's a bit early for maintenance.

Maybe it's the new iFlashlight.

They wouldn't release new Mac Pros without prior announcement, I think. But maybe some interesting price cuts can give us a hint about something coming up soon?

It's back.

BTO takes 4-6 days. I think it was 2-4 previously.

My guess is it was down to prepare for WWDC2013 ticket sales that start at 10AM

All I see different are a lot of brown boxes instead of devices in the refurb sections.

There's a sliding menu at the top that I've never seen before, but admittedly I don't look at the Store much so it may have previously been there.

Why would you need to take a modern website down to change the content? Hardware maintenance, sure, but content is written on another machine and then essentially copied over in a single operation.

I'm pretty sure that there's no need for it these days but it is somewhat traditional. I suspect Apple still administer site changes in this way partly just as a wind-up for sites like us.
