Apple has such weird processes. We bought a MacBook for my wife's new job. We ordered it Wednesday online for pick-up at our local Apple Store. It should've been ready today, but we got an email saying it was going to be shipped to the store for a delivery date of the 12th. However, the local Apple Store had the exact model and color she wanted in stock! Make it make sense! In short, we ran to the store, got the computer, and cancelled the online order.
