I have had a G4 on order with Applestore since last year. I originally ordered one of the Dual 500MHz Gigabit-Ethernet models under the rebate program.
Apple cancelled that order and replaced it with a sharp discount on the same model. Then they cancelled
that order when the Digital Audio models were introduced.
They gave me a choice between some non-BTO machines, both Gigabit and Digital Audio, and also provided a special link to the AppleStore site, claiming any BTO order I placed would receive "expedited" handling. I ordered a 733Mhz model.
Of course, now reports are coming in from all over from new 733 owners and mine is still "Being Assembled".
Does anyone have any experience with whether "expedited" actually means anything in these circumstances?
