After anxiously enduring shipping delays, buyerâ??s remorse, and all the other events of the week, my new iMac Core Duo arrived this morning. Did I expect it to? No.

It was rescheduled to arrive on Friday the 27th. When I rolled in to work, I checked FedEx.com, and it was on the truck for delivery. Now, usually, FedEx delivers in the early afternoon (1 p.m.-ish), but I had a strange feeling that they would be early. So I immediately bailed, drove home, and no more than ten minutes later I was calling my wife, telling her I had received it. Fantastic. Iâ??m going to bring it in to work tomorrow.
