Spent about an hour on the phone with my bank and Apple organizing my PowerBook purchase. The nice guy from Apple was very surprised that he was able to charge my card so quickly, but in a good way. He wasn't so sure that it'd ship soon, though, because it was “backordered” and might be “a couple of weeks”.
So I was pleasantly surprised to receive a shipment notification a few minutes ago. I think my PowerBook is ready to ship. The email I got from Apple is a little confusing…
Dear Apple Customer, The following products shipped on 06/05/2002.
as if 06/05/2002 is a date in the past!? Weird. They did provide that essential piece of information: a FedEx tracking number. I'm hopeful that I'll get it in time for me to set it up for MacHack.
