I did order it from an Apple store. The computers are supposedly all being assembled in the US to order and shipped over to Australia complete. So if you added extras (like me), it would presumably throw even more spanners in the works.
Apparently all Mac Minis bound for Australia are being held up for this long time - a few weeks ago I was told that it was because of a shortage of superdrives, but now it's obvious that its a shortage of, well, Mac Minis. Figures.
Well unless you live in the USA, shortages are already a fact.
I have been waiting almost 2 months for the Mac Mini I ordered, and I was told the other day that it could be yet another "several months" in coming. I can understand Australia being lower on Apple's list of priorites, but this is ridiculous.
I will be cancelling my order. So long Apple, and thanks for the Kool Aid. You can wait for a time when I need a new computer, not just want one.
I'll try to refrain from further stamping of my feet in vexation - I doubt they really care...
And what do you think Seven of Nine was for? Lesbian evil-universe Kira Nerys? (Oh the subtext there.)
Enterprise is merely upholding Trek tradition...

...God kills a kitten.
Please, think of the kittens.
And besides, everyone knows that in Korea, only old people kill people over virtual swords...
Or to put it even more succinctly...
"You can't polish a turd."

what about a feed of the latest slashdot stories? would increase efficiency of nerds worldwide?
:)
No, but it might get them to leave the house once in a while.
Or even at least once.
