You really think apple doesn't insure their computer shipments? Its on my credit card so I'm not paying shit until I get it. The problem is I work overtime all weekend so I can't get out there til monday anyways.

Doubt they insured it. If they did, you'd be paying for the insurance in the shipping costs.

If Apple is disputing the claim "on your behalf" with UPS, I'd tell them screw that, ship me a new computer! Customer service should not involved you waiting for a resolution to a dispute between Apple and their distributor.

Explain to them that you are cancelling the order and will dispute any charges with your VISA. If you receive this computer, you will immediately be sending it back unopened. Then just submit an order for a new computer with Apple or someone else.

My UPS tracking status has said the following bullshit since Monday night.

Status:
Billing Information Received
Shipped To:
DUBLIN, OH, US
Shipped/Billed On:
08/23/2010

Apple and UPS both blame it on each other and say call next week if its not in. Well fuck I want my damn laptop before next week. Nobody knows where my $1100 computer is?!?!?!?!

Any words of advice before I murder Steve Jobs and whoever runs UPS?
