Got unexpected news today: the Mac Pro portion of an order we recently made is delayed. No big deal.
However, I looked at the date when we were told to the shipment of the towers: December 4. That’s a Tuesday.
Yeah, that’s not suspicious at all.
It could just be that the ATI X1900 GPU or some other component is constrained. That happens, but that ship date sure makes me suspicious. Especially given the model age of the entire Mac Pro lineup.
One point of concern: we bought third-party RAM for these Mac Pro towers. The memory is not the invoice from Apple.
