October 2024 Macs
To order a product with Apple Store pickup, add the product to your bag on Apple.com, proceed to checkout, select the "I'll pick it up" option, enter your ZIP code, choose an available Apple Store location, and select a pickup date.

Just picked up my 1TB 24GB Mini at local Apple Store. So that's exciting for....pretty much no one.

The Mac or the Crowd?

Everybody enjoy your new Macs. With the "gift" of 16GB RAM (without jacking the price), there's some true added value here now. Hopefully, Apple keeps that kind of thing going.
The crowd. No one in there at all.

Setting it up now ?

I ordered a custom config the day they were announced and was given a delivery date of Nov. 19. Then I got a notification from Apple saying it would arrive Nov. 15, and now UPS is saying it will arrive on Nov. 11. Yay!

Given problems with UPS and issues with porch pirates in general, I find the in-store pick ups to be bit of a blessing
