Hey krlock3, sorry - I just wanted to point out the bright side of the delay, I'm a satisfied Mac user myself and closely monitor Apple's moves...

And because of this I have to say that this delay isn't a complete surprise to me. First come the US, then the big European markets (and Japan/Canada) and then the rest. It's the same pattern like for the iTunes Music Store. In a few years, when somebody inside Apple proposes to open a flagship store in good old Switzerland, they'll notice that there has been an AppleStore look-alike from DataQuest in downtown Zurich for a decade.

Similar companies probably act in the same way but it takes some time to get used to it for us Apple fans I guess.
