Apple's Mac Pro Shipping Estimates Move to March in Many Countries

Shipping estimates for new orders of stock configurations of the redesigned Mac Pro have now moved to March in many of Apple's online stores around the world.

mac_pro_uk_ship_march
The change in shipping estimates does not necessarily reflect a worsening supply situation given that estimates have been listed at "February" essentially since launch last month, but they do indicate that Apple is not making up significant ground as lead times appear to be remaining in the six-week range.

The new March shipping estimates are in effect for stock and build-to-order configurations throughout Apple's online stores for Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) and Asia Pacific (APAC) operational regions. Estimates in Apple's stores for the Americas remain at February for the time being.

Update: As of January 21, Mac Pro shipping estimates in the United States, Mexico, and Canada have also slipped to March.

Apple really dropped the ball on this launch.

I guess this shows them how much more popular the Mac Pro is then they had thought, and how many pro users were chomping at the bit to finally get there hands on a new updated Mac Pro.

Maybe now apple will see that the iPhone isn't the only product that people have demand for and start showing more love to the pro market.
I'm guessing if they really had no "love" for the pro market, they would not have spent millions redesigning the Mac Pro.

Just ordered mine 2 days ago. I imagine "Dispatched February" means February 29th!

Except that Feb 29th doesn't exist :D

Not making enough….or underestimated demand.

Or the suppliers can't make the components fast enough.
