Hmmmm.... it shipped today. My Mac Mini is now on it's way. In less than a weeks time (likely) I'll be a 'switcher'. I won't likely get the machine into my grubby little hands until Monday as I'll be away for the weekend (including Friday). So while it might make it to my office (that's where I have stuff shipped typically so I'm actually available to receive it) on Friday, I won't get it til Monday.

I'm happy that it shipped today, but now I'm curious as to whether either a.) my email/complaint to Apple did something to speed up the process or b.) they simply have zero ideas about inventory/backlog and so when they said the estimated time was midway through May they simply put a big time up to play it safe. Hmmm... anyway, I'm a little less dissapointed with Apple now as they only shipped it two days late. I'm sure the 'user experience' will make up for it :D
