Well I hope there will happen something soon as Paypal shows that the pending payment will expire in about 10 days...

lol I was wondering about paypal as well...
But I seriously doubt that the order will get canceled somehow because of some flaw in paypal's system?
 
You just select paypal as a payment method and then it works just like in many other online store...you get redirected, accept the payment and get back to the apple store.

Though obviously apple doesn't charge paypal before they ship.
 
So has anyone with a stock Mac Pro on order seen any status change? Us with CTO once have some more wait to do but the stock orders should move along quicker right?
 
Still nothing here :(

Ordered 8 hours after store came up
Modified hex core
UK

I've actually started to slow down on work because I am just hoping to continue on ma new baby :D
 
Well it's getting to the point where I am going to grab an alternative

Having made the mistake of selling my main system in Dec in anticipation of getting a unit by year end I am now getting a backlog of work that I just can't do on my little server I am using as a temp system,

Am going to give it till Friday and if no movement by then I will order a PC based system (available for next day delivery) and save myself £900 that will do for 18months or so

Must admit having never been involved with early orders on apple stuff before I am very disappointed with the way this has been handled considering its a fairly low volume business machine

So good news for others in line at least you will move up one on Friday :D
 
No date on the stock hex core my client has ordered here so far, should have ordered two at the Florida address and we would have had both five weeks earlier!

After my brief time setting up the us can which is now in Lagos via London I really would suggest to hang on in there and wait. Like l'oreal it will be worth it :)

Not even for stock models?! This is just getting sad actually ... Have there actually been any models delivered to the EU? Made the mistake to doubt between GPU's so only made my order the 28 or 29th so I'm in the "somewhere in february"-batch. So annoyed by this.
As Tim Cook tweeted, production only started on the date orders became possible, that's far from available in december

Yes, I kinda regret it now as well. Never expected the shipping date to be February in ~24 hours.

It would be rather annoying if my local UK Apple store gets in models before my pre-order arrives. But I knew it said February date 2 mins after ordering so can't grumble about that too much. I can of course be waiting with bated breath and checking my order status (home page) every 6 or so hours.

It's like watching the kettle boil :D

Edit: It could be worse, my dad once ordered a BMW M3 from Germany at launch, I think he waited 6 months for it to arrive in the UK.
 
Well in switzerland I already touched the mac pro in the Apple Store.
I ordered on the 19th around 4 pm CET+1, it shows me february.
 
Was looking around in Milton Keynes UK and they had the 6core model on display.

nothing was on stock with them was advised to order online if i wanted one.
 
Out of interest, is the nMP on show in Apple stores in the UK?

Two on display in Bristol, one at Cabot and the other at Cribbs. Both 6-core I think. Both stores confirmed only online orders and none for stock.

My stock quad-core ordered 3rd Jan still shows 'Dispatched: February'.
 
Well, I received my dispatched notification this morning...

I'm over in London..

6core, d300, 32gb RAM, 500gb SSD

That's great news - you must be well chuffed! :)

It's almost the same spec as me, although I kept the 12GB of Apple RAM and am going to buy 32GB from Crucial once the bank balance recovers a bit. ;)

I'm in the UK too and I assume you ordered on the 19th, but out of interest at what time? Also, did you get the "it will dispatch in January" email from Apple?

Yeah - very chuffed! I can actually crack on with music work now! As I've been falling begin on certain projects..

I ordered as soon as the uk site went live (even had credit card log number ready in the clipboard!) ordered at 8:40am and ordered confirmed at 8:41am

Also got that dispatch in January email from apple too..

When did you order?
 
CompuB the Irish Apple store is getting in MP's today for demo's in their stores.

No word of stock just yet though. When i check the the Irish online Apple store it still says February for me.
