The first wave of European shipments of MacBook Pros with Touch Bars appear to be out for delivery, after several Apple customers across the pond and beyond saw their orders enter the "Preparing for Dispatch" stage over the last 48 hours.

Many MacRumors readers in the EU are reporting notifications of imminent courier deliveries, while a handful of readers in Germany, Sweden, France, and the U.K. claim to have received their new MacBooks early this morning.

The new MacBook Pros sold out quickly, with shipping estimates moving from 2 to 3 weeks to 3 to 4 weeks hours after they went on sale. Current shipping estimates are 3 to 4 weeks. Apple's Phil Schiller said that the company has received more online orders for the new MacBook Pro than any previous model. Slice Intelligence sales estimates suggest the new model has already outsold all competing laptops in 2016.

The 13-inch MacBook Pro with Touch Bar starts at $1,799 while the 15-inch MacBook Pro with Touch Bar starts at $2,399.

Really? People are that flippant now that they order a 2500eur laptop and it's like meh, got it, kinda tired, might switch it on tomorrow? May I suggest this is important when we are reading about other person's views and what is expected from such a purchase? I hope other people buying it rip the box open and sit there with huge eyes, amazed at their new machine and what it delivers.
Maybe that was the OPs polite way of saying "it's late I'm dating a supermodel who's waiting in bed for me"... and for some of us that would be more enticing than a new MBP... but to each their own
