My G5 didn't arrive today
by brian @ 14:13:43 - [perma-link]The pile of boxes in my kitchen is not from Apple. They do not contain
my G5.
Apple delayed my shipment sometime yesterday, late afternoon.
Apparently there was some sudden supply issue between noon and 6pm, such
that they tacked on an extra 5 weeks to my estimated shipping date.
Its already been 91 days. I know that, not just because of my l33t math
skillz, but because my order no longer appears on the "Order Status"
page on the Apple store website. I now have to look up the order number
every time I want to check (though I'm sure I'll have it memorized
before too long).
I called Apple this morning, and my new "On Or Before" date of 10/29
means that it could ship sooner, or that on Oct 29, they'll tack on
another extension. It gives me a nice helpless feeling inside.
Thanks, Apple!
(At least they haven't announced a new, improved version yet, like they
did when I was waiting for my tibook. THAT really sucks.) |
