Thats good. My Mac mini is going to supposivly take 3-4 weeks to get here. I hope to god it doesn't take that long and Apple delivers in a shorter time span. Yet the demand for them is outrageous right now. At work we recieved about 50-60, and they were gone in about a half-hour. Apple employees aren't allowed to buy the Mac mini shipments that come in right now due to the customer demand. Atleast at my store anyways.

There was nothing stopping me from changing the quantity of promo iPods at the online store... could I have purchased more iPods at halfprice? :whistle:

This is the new pb right? Make sure to post your thoughts :)

[Huy]

cman yep that's right. They're the new PB's. This will be my first Mac but I have emulated Panther on Windows (if that counts); PearPC. I haven't used a Mac thoroughly though, besides the occasional iMac and eMac use at school and uni. I'm an Apple fan though! (20GB iPod 4th gen owner). :)

[mikedc1760]

Damn, it took me like 2 minutes to find where it was. That should be a new game, just like wheres Waldo but wheres the Mac Mini.

Didn't Apple computers first come out in 1984? ;) Hence the 20 year anniversary poster.

[WarrenG]

The mac debuted in 1984......

You have to remember the Apple, Apple ][e and the Apple ][c

He could be talking about the //e ..

Since I think the Macintosh came out in 1984.

[michael.b]

Or maybe I'm going out on a limb here, but maybe he was saying 'I haven't touched an Apple all my life.' And since he was born before the creation, it counts? I don't know, that's what my head told me when I read it.

I will post pictures of my new G5, soon. Just got it yesterday. :happy:

My PAURbook is free at last.

I almost didn't see it it's so small :cool:

I don't know if I'm allowed to post pictures here, but I think it should be okay. :blush:

My PB arrived two hours ago but I had to go and deliver the 20GB iPod that came with it (I purchased the Cram and Jam promotion, $200 rebate when buying a PB and iPod together). So I've had a chance to unwrap my baby and get it up and running (registration, account info, etc).

It's simply beautiful! :cry:

I've attached one picture out of many that I've taken, I'll post more up if you guys want but it's nothing you haven't seen before. I'll be back in a few hours (or tomorrow) because I want to do a bit of transferring files, etc. I don't have the Internet on the PB so I'll have to make do for now. (I only have dialup at home).

A few things that I noticed:

- It came preinstalled with OS X 10.3.7. I was about to download the Combo Update! (on dialup!)

- I don't have a SuperDrive but it came with iLife '05 preinstalled with iDVD 5 and GarageBand 2. (Is this supposed to happen? I thought I only got the CD version preinstalled. Doesn't matter!).

- The recovery CD's (OS X and OS9) were both DVDs... I was expecting a couple of CD's!

In a sentence: I simply love my PB. It's fantastic! Currently taking it's first charge... :D

My Mac mini was "Partially Shipped". The Wireless keyboard and mouse should be here tomorrow. Yet that does me no good lol. Im still waiting for the Mac mini to be shipped.

[Detroit]

Enjoy! Just wondering, does it come with backlight keyboard? And of course, how do you find it(after using it)?!

[Huy]

Only the 15" and 17" models come with backlit keyboards. So no, mine doesn't have the backlighting. Truth be told, within 20 minutes of usage I managed to freeze the computer! (I'm not kidding). I inserted the Mac OS X DVD (just to check it out) and had System Preferences open - I was trying to change my trackpad settings. It stopped responding but I was able to move the cursor around. I didn't know how to "ctrl-alt-del" so I rebooted it... I don't know what went wrong! :blush:

It is running fine now, I haven't been able to do much with it (no Internet, I won't have the Internet on it for a while, until I get broadband). Other than the slight hiccup, it's fantastic! I only have to go back onto the PC for the Internet (for the time being). :)
