Once you put your hand in the flame you can never be the same, there's a certain satisfaction in a little bit of pain.

Nope... it took me 6 months to order my PowerBook 180 from Apple. Ordered it in Nov 1992, got it in May of 1993.

From what I heard, the PowerBook 170s were even harder to get.

They really really really should address the slow shipping on al of those products and quit saying that a product is "available immediately" when it's really 2 or 3 months away n: . It's really bad press for them.

Apple wants to make sure to tie up your money rather than have your eye stray while you are waiting!

my Pink iPod mini actually shipped 4 weeks early. It was supposed to ship August 18th and shipped last weekend instead.
