Apple Australia – Slow and Steady doesn’t win the race!

Almost 4 weeks ago I excitedly rang my local Apple store to place an order for a new dual core powermac. I made a few modifications to the standard configuration so the ETA on it was going to be a little longer than a standard machine. The prediction was 10 days.

Hmmm – so it’s coming up for 28 days and on last report the powermac is in Singapore.

While I love what Apple makes with it’s computers (this is my third – having owned an ibook and powerbook) I’ve noticed that on each occasion of purchasing them that the delivery time has always gone at least a week or two past what I was advised on purchase. I’m not sure if it’s just a localized Apple Australia problem but it’s enough to drive a guy nuts!

I’m sure it’ll be worth the wait but I’m starting to wonder if it’ll get here before Christmas!
