On Monday we ordered a new 24″ iMac to replace my aging 1.25Ghz G4 PowerBook. The shipping lead time was 1 - 3 days, with a 2 - 3 day ship time if we paid extra. Which we did so my wife wouldn’t have to listen to me complain about FedEx and Memphis.
Wednesday afternoon I placed an order for a second power supply for my MacBook Pro, and a Griffin Elevator. The lead time on the power supply was 1 - 2 days, with a 3 to 8 day shipping time, the Elevator had a lead time of 2 to 3 weeks with the same 3 to 8 day shipping time.
Friday afternoon, the doorbell rings and it’s Purolator delivering the Griffin Elevator.
Today at lunch FedEx dropped off the MacBook Pro power supply, all the while the iMac is sitting in Memphis waiting for it to be the day that Apple committed for it to be delivered on.
