within 7 days

So fast? I was assuming that it being new, there might be a long queue...? No?

7 days meh..or more

it will be shipped the next day.
MacBooks doesn't actually have queues like iPhones and iPad

1-3 days. ordered a high end 13" MBA with 8gb ram for my mum on Sunday and it arrived today.

stringfellow posted a few bto units ready at lyp few pages back.

sent my mbp to check due to the batt capacity problem

they ran some diagnostic tools and i can see that my HDD and gfx also might be having some problem. looks like we dont have access to those tools where it connects to Apple Aussie server to run. that's what i was told.

cant change just that batt, they wanna run a proper diagnostic on my book before they decide the next course of action. gotta leave it there few days but i said no thanks. lol will only submit to them when i dont really need to use it that often

Guys, there are some apps bundled together worth $264 going for only $30.

Thought some of you might like to know.

could you share which service center did you bring it to? as well as if your unit is still under warranty.

i ordered mine 13' mba low end spec upgraded to 8gb ram during sunday night, and it stated will arrive around 6~10 july, up until now my status is still processing items.

by 10 July surely arrive.
shipping only takes 2-3 days

Yours considered BTO already. like BRY7 said, confirmed on 10th July.

However if your unit is pick up from DHL by tomorrow. You may able to received it by Friday.
Wish you luck !

Good evening from Istanbul. It's 5:50pm here.

Stuck here for 3 nights, it's summer here and freaking 33-35 degrees HOT with dry heat. Not gonna do any sightseeing in this stupid weather, so I've prepped this in the hotel room for the entire duration of the stay.



Retina MacBook Pro, running Diablo 3, StarCraft 2 and Steam games. The silver behemoth is the 6TB Thunderbolt Duo drive feeding 6TB worth of 720p/1080p movies and TV shows via Plex, Retina iPad, Retina iPhone 4S (used to take this pic, which makes me Retinized across all my portable devices), and PSVita.

No moments of boredom here. The only boring time is the time to venture out of the room to get something to eat. Turkish food isn't exactly "delightful".

For 226 dpi of pixel density in the rmbp, i recalled Steve jobs launching the iPhone 4 saying that the threshold our eyes can't differentiate pixel is when the pixel density becomes more than 300 dpi... Did they over advertised the rmbp?

once u put both retina and non retina mbp, then u can see the difference, or else it should be hardly see it unless u go very very close to see the lcd hehe.

very nice setup stringfellow!
wonder how many kilos are this total up haha
abit off topic here. where you download those 720p/1080p video that store inside your WD thunderbolt duo?
or you buy from itunes store?

The reason why it still qualifies as Retina is the fact that the screen pixels aren't discernible from the normal distance of viewing. When it comes to iPhone, you view the screen closer, therefore it needs a greater PPI count. You view the Retina iPad much further than iPhone 4S, and still unable to discern the pixel structure of the screen at normal viewing distance. The same principles applies to the Retina MBP.

In all cases, the Retina definition doesn't apply when you view them closer than their optimum viewing distance. If I put my eyeballs millimeters from the iPhone 4S screen, the Retina doesn't apply anymore. The same with Retina iPad and Retina MBP. Nobody views their Retina devices out of context when it comes to the viewing distance other than the craziest pixel-peepers and optically-challenged people.

A sample of movies in that 6TB Thunderbolt Duo. A tip of the iceberg compared to the content in the Pegasus Thunderbolt at home.
