    I believe Steve said Jag would ship August 24th.



    Everyone seems to think that any Mac that ships on or after that point will have it pre-installed.



    but I could be wrong

    So then why in the blue f0ck is everyone so excited about the 17" delay? Isn't it really dumb to order it and then have to buy Jag right when it arrives?

    Well you can get the $20 upgrade if you've ordered a Mac since MWNY.

    FYI: apple just lowered the ship time of the 17" iMac to 2-4 weeks from 3-4...

    perhaps a stupid question, but how long does the being reviewed icon stay up? Does it stay that way till it is actually being built? I ordered on monday the 5th and it still says being reviewed, i called my credit card company and they said that the purchase was approved. Is this just the way it works?

    The new 17" imacs in the Cincinnati Apple store are running OS X.2 (build 6C98) They are the only Macs in the store running 10.2 Maybe the 17" iMac won't ship until the new version of OS X comes out. Could the 17" iMacs require the 10.2 to run properly?

    I received my 17" iMac today. I ordered it at Fry's Outpost.com the weekend after MWNY. I have not set it up yet, but I doubt it has Jaguar.

    I just walked into the apple store in Tampa, Fl on Thursday (09/09) and had no problem buying one. They had about 20 in stock.
