iTWire - Aussies score early Leopard delivery

Aussies score early Leopard delivery

! Australian Mac owners who placed advance orders for Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard are starting to take delivery before the new operating system hits the shops. Due to time zone differences, Leopard officially goes on sale at 6pm this evening. But people who ordered from the Apple Store began receiving their copies this morning. Reports are coming in from Darwin, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide. Freight companies tend to prioritise deliveries to city centres and other areas with a significant concentration of businesses, while mainly residential suburbs are not serviced until late morning or early afternoon. Some but not all early-ordering customers have received notification that Leopard has been dispatched to them for delivery today to metro addresses. Some Apple retailers are holding Leopard launch parties this evening, while others are just staying open late to allow keen customers to buy their copies of Mac OS X 10.5.
