Well, I was so tired of waiting for my MBP (yes, already) that I ran over to CompUSA today while I was on my Starbucks run, just to see if they had any in stock. I knew I wouldn’t be able to get the educational discount on it there, but I was willing to fork over an extra $200 for instant gratification.
Well, I’m not sure if I find it comforting or not, but I’m not the only one waiting for my new best friend to arrive: CompUSA only has the original Intel Core Duo-based models in stock.

Cal: Pfft… All first-gen problems. I’m ssuuurreee they’ve got all those worked out by now. And if not, I’ll simply repeatedly insist that they return my money until I’ve spent so much time on hold that it’s worth their while to do so…
*sigh* They’re not expecting to ship it until November 9th… How very sad.
