Any suggestions?
Ideally, I would like the 15" with the 160GB hard drive butthat can only be ordered online and I can't buy that before the end of the year and have it delivered at a time where I will be home to get it as we have Xmas and beginning of January trips.
The 17" I can grab at any apple store, but I think it might be too unweildy.
Does anyone have any experience calling Apple with specific delivery instructions?

Can you get the Apple Store to order it (and hold it) for you?
Could you get it shipped to your office?
My experience ordering online was that it was pretty fast - the computer (with three or four options) was built and shipped within 24 hours and arrived direct from Shanghai within about 72.
