Tim Dorr Veteran Posted August 11, 2002 Veteran Share Posted August 11, 2002 First, I finally got my iPod this wednesday. 20gb version too! The things so cool I don't even now how to describe how pleased I am with it. THe one thing I didn't know about it was the pressure sensitive wheel. So, when it didn't move, I thought it was DOA! :s Luckily, I went back to the Apple store and they showed me that it was supposed to be that way... Phew! I loaded it up with some sampler songs at the store too, so I've been listening to some obscure bands while I wait to get my iMac... Speaking of which, I finally put the order through for it. I'm hoping that there won't be much delays. I'm getting the 17" iMac G4, so I'm guessing quantities will be limited. Any idea if there are going to be delays? Any idea how long it takes to ship??? Well, I'll let you guys know when I get it. I'm just really excited about all of this, so I just HAD to post... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bling3k12 Posted August 11, 2002 Share Posted August 11, 2002 17" iMacs are supposed to ship around the release of 10.2 if I remember correctly... they will have 10.2 Preloaded, that's why they will be shipped around that date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrimsonBlur Posted August 12, 2002 Share Posted August 12, 2002 I want to get that computer, the new 17" widescreen G4 and a 20GB iPod, damn... if only I had the money. After all, I am a student, and you save JACK with Apple with student prices. Only like $50! Come on! I think it is $45 less as a student for the new iMac :( Oh well, there is always promising to sacrifice all birthdays and Christmases for 10 years....
