lol, using the alternative tracking site, I've discovered that mine has been delayed in China due to "truck/plane failure".

hey guys i got my mac today
i customized it on monday afternoon (day after my birthday)
2 1/2 days later its here! (thursday morning)
i dident even pay for express shipping

You're getting me way to excited. I just ordered a stock 20" on monday (10/16) and I'm way too excited hoping it comes tomorrow (I don't have tracking because I ordered it through the college that I work fors Apple Store and they just say "we'll call you when it gets here"). *crossing my fingers*

 

[ascender]

Well, its still not here. Boo!

According to Apple it left China yesterday. When I spoke to Apple a couple of days ago, it was heading for the UK, so I've no idea what's going on now.

I placed my order on 10/17 with macconnection (20" C2D). Right now, it's about 3 states away on a UPS truck. The scheduled date for delievery is 10/24. I've never had anything shipped via UPS come any sooner than the tracking info, so I doubt I'll get it any quicker.
