Originally planned for late January availability, Apple in early February informed customers of a delay that would result in shipments beginning on February 19th. Numerous readers began reporting this weekend that their order statuses had been updated to reflect that their machines were either being prepared for shipment or had already been shipped, several days ahead of Apple's announced shipping date.

Looking at that picture makes me wish the older design was still in use.

Let the sea of complaining begin to rise. Gosh, the internet has made it so easy to be vocally unsatisfied. For the record, I think it's beautiful and well-featured.

Eh... They used to look nicer.

Edit: ^ Apparently we are not allowed to not like it. Only express happiness on the Internet.

I'm happy for those who ordered and wanted it. However, those of us who don't like the new design will have to go elsewhere for our next laptop upgrade. Maybe once I see one in person I'll change my mind, though! I'll keep an eye out for them.
