I recieved my iMac in the advertised time. What model did you order? Congrats on your purchase, you're gonna love it.

thanx bassplayrr

i got the current updated 12" 1.5 ghz pbook w/ superdrive.. it was only $100 (CDN, after stud. discount) more than the 1.33 pbook combo - and it has a bigger / faster harddrive. so i decided to go for the super hehe..

i'm pretty hyped up about it - i've been goofing around w/ my friends ibook a month ago.. : )

Yep, I got mine within the set arrival date.
