The Apple Store is down as of 7/18/12 12:30AM hopefully it means a new iMac and Mac mini. It most likely is not, but is still worth saying.
 
yes we just had thread on this but thanks for sharing. Probably just regular maintenance.
 
Online Store Down

The online store is currently down..11:45 PM central time. At guesses? Something small?

I did some research, and it looks like Apple always updates their store on late Tuesdays early Wednesdays, but I am still hoping.
 
I'm not excited, just the opposite actually.

Anyhow the link doesn't work. Just says well be right back.

Ohh?

Right but, that's what happens when I clicked on "Buy Now" in the MacMini section. I'm HOPING that means that they are going to release updated MacMinis.

Difference is that it usually loads funny, no "we'll be back" graphics. The rotating languages is definitely new too.
 
I don't want to raise hopes here...But...It's still down this AM Uk time, and that graphic DOES look like the one they usually use for updates. Normally see the yellow one, but then again, they have updated the look of the store recently...Could be nothing!
 
Here's the message I'm getting in the US.

Ya same here except rotating languages. Not to be mean but how many languages are there. I mean osx is not even made in that many languages.
 
Seriously.....do you guys realize how many times they go under maintenance? I've run into that message numerous times when checking up a product past midnight. Nothing new is coming, wait all you want, all you're wasting is precious sleep.
