That's weird. I remember you mentioned somewhere that they need to use some kind of store number in order to track order from Apple. That's why they won't give you the tracking number now until next week. The store you're ordering might use intranet to have a website looks exactly like Apple's, but actually you don't order on Apple store directly. The store will have to put an order through a special way which is exclusive to second/third party. I really don't think the way you're describing would be profitable for the stores. Unless you paid a lot more to them which doesn't make sense to me. :confused:

well i was there looking right at their computer when they ordered it... they went to a page that looked pretty damn close to apple.com, though it was a month ago so i could be wrong lol...then gave me an invoice from their store... i paid what you would have paid from ordering it your self not a penny more... so i dunno. they are a apple authorized dealer you could be right maybe they have some special page that looks exactly like apple.com :confused: i dunno i dont work there lol... anyways i dont think it matters much who u bought it though if its shipping its shipping. it wouldnt make sense for them to ship just one just because i ordered though someone else. if mines shipping to canada im sure there are others shipping to apple in canada as well. or maybe im just the only one in canada whos going to get theirs on time lol (YA RIGHT) :rolleyes:

Babsvii,

You have to learn to relax......You are getting bent out of shape over nothing. We accept the fact yours is shipping to the store where you purchased it.... That is cool :cool: now we are waiting for someone who ordered from the Online Apple Store to confirm that they are getting their shipment.

My theory is that for those who ordered directly on Apple store, they ship ours to US first and then redistribute them to us. However, if you ordered through a second/third party, there's no point of doing so, they will just ship it to the store you're ordering at. Therefore, I am guessing here, our iMacs are en route from China to US right now, but we won't get shipping notice until it's shipped from US to us.

The intranet is more commonly used than you might imagine. You can see them at Best Buy, Future Shop, or Chapters(maybe not now, Chapters recently upgrade their machines to have touch screen here, which is quite nice :D). They all look similar, but it's not really connected to the actual server you would connect to, most likely an internal one. There are quite a few advantages of doing so, I doubt anyone's interested though, so I will stop here. lol

lol its funny that u think that i am bent out of shape, cause thats not the case at all lol. i just thought i was helping someone out by mentioning that i had confirmed shipping in canada. i guess not... my bad i guess im supposed to be a mind reader as well... if i would have known you only wanted to hear from ppl who ordered right from apple i would have never mentioned it... any how lol im sure we will see other ppl poping up by tomorrow with their confirmed shipping in the us and canada as well. from now on i will try my hardest to tap into my super human sixth sense im supposed to have to know what u all are thinking and asking before i comment on your questions... lol ;)

@gasport

Finally! Some truly great news I've been waiting for!
Did you order on March 3rd? Looks like it won't be long before all of us get our shipping notice. :D

I'm in the exact same theory boat...sooo with gasports ubernews

... I just got my email from the Apple Store... Shipping April 9 Delivery April 10 ( US state MA)...... This is 3.06 with 4850.

i'm guessing they are just getting into the states today! I'm SO stoked that I could be getting my computer early next week!

Do you recall the time you ordered yours at? I'm jealous now.
Also, what's the timestamp of your email?

Odds are I should get mine bumped up very, very shortly, since I ordered very close to what you did:

3.06GHZ INTEL CORE 2 DUO
4GB 1066MHZ DDR3 SDRAM-2X2GB
ATI RADEON HD 4850 512MB
1.0TB SERIAL ATA DRIVE
IWORK '09 PREINSTALLED
APPLE MIGHTY MOUSE
KYBD (NUM) & USER'S GUIDE
COUNTRY KIT,IMAC 24
 
march 3 at 7 AM PDT

Thanks a lot.

now gasport, get ready to answer lots of questions tomorrow. lol
I can see many will ask you:
1. which OS X version you have?
2. can you run GPU-Z to confirm if it's a mobility or desktop version?

Congratulation, by the way! :D

I am betting it is not 10.5.7

I am sure it is the mobility version.

Gasport..when did your credit card get authorized again for your purchase?? I stated before that the money was just removed from my credit card today by apple. I am still showing "Not Yet Shipped" with a ship date of April 17 and deliver of April 20...I am curious if your card was charged recently? So yours is shipping three days ahead of time?? Do you have tracking yet?
 
GamaFu,

Is there a version for the Mac? I only see a Windows version......

Unfortunately, I don't think there is one for Mac.
Well, I don't really care anyway. ;)
Spend some quality time with your iMac tomorrow.
Installing Windows just for this purpose seems too much work to me.
Just wait for barefeats to do it. lol
