I really want an iMac now, and am going at any lengths to get one, my parents have agreed to buy it for me on a credit card and over two months I'll pay them back. So tommorow I was going off to the Apple store thats like 2 hours away to buy one, but I've heard some things like you can buy it there but you can't get it straight away, they ship it to you instead and you have to wait a few days. Now if thats the case I'll order it online, but I hope you can buy it in store. I'm from the UK if thats any difference.
Mac
Platform »
The Macintosh (Mac) line of personal computers is designed and developed by Apple, Inc. - formerly Apple Computer, Inc. It runs macOS, a Unix operating system. Its current version, macOS 13.4 "Ventura" was released on May 18, 2023.
Can you walk out of the store with one or not?
I called the store, and the person I spoke to told me that there is a good chance they will have them in stock. I asked him how many they have in stock and he said he can't answer that, I don't know whether he actuly didn't know or whether he was to lazy to find out for me. Either way I'm getting one tommorow woop woop!
They can't tell people how much stock there is in case someone is trying to "case the joint".I called the store, and the person I spoke to told me that there is a good chance they will have them in stock.

And I suppose you know by now, but yes. You can walk out with one like any other product.
Enjoy your Mac! :)
usually having to ask your parents to buy it for you would be an indication that it costs too much money, but ok.@Toms115 said:

He said he is going to pay them back and he can pay over time. I don't know why he just doesn't save for 2 months and then buy the Mac, but he wants it now so let him pay off his parents.
rofl i'm not STOPPING him from buying it, just suggesting that it's kind of silly.@Toms115 said:

Yeah, that's why babies and children shouldn't have clothes or food unless they get a goddamn job.
ive heard some stupid online arguments but this might just take the cake. I have a mac and love it but suggesting a pc is an excellent idea if you cant afford a mac at the time. Idc who you owe it to but debt is never something you want to be in. i know from all the money i own from college. Also a computer is a want not a need like food and cloths.@Toms115 said:

they rarely have the most expensive version in stores. they will keep more affordable computers in store so people might actually buy them when they are there. but my macbook pro was next to maxed and i bought that in store no problem.
paid cash. felt like a drug deal.
I'd admit that the products are great but I already have a macbook and iphone that I got last year. I had a imac at my parents home from years ago but sure. I like seening new updates and the latest in apple products even when that means I don't buy anything. They do cost but that is hte apple tax.

I know there over priced and I could get pretty much the same thing for half the price.
No matter how many Anti-Mac say crap like that its never going to be true to that extent. When you configure a PC with the exact same hardware as a newly refreshed Mac you will end up paying about the same, however the gap widens a bit as the Mac hardware gets older so timely purchases get you the best value.
