Default do I have to wait for HD???

A dealer told me on the phone today that I would have to wait 6-8 weeks to upgrade to HD from my PTIII rig because he says that customers buying new rigs (ie: not upgrading) get priority!!! Is this true Digi???

it only took 2 weeks through my dealer - the quicker they deliver, the quicker they get paid!

Sam Ash Pro in NYC were the ones who said I had to wait 6-8 weeks. I've found other dealers since who can deal right away. E-mail me if you want info.

benderbro,

I personally wanted to apologize for the mis-inforamtion you were given about upgrading your system. My name is Christopher Payne and I'm a salesperson at Sam Ash Pro NYC. Originally, Digidesign was asking for a grace period of 6-8 weeks for upgrades, but that is no longer the case. If you are still looking to upgrade your system, please feel free to contact me @ [email protected]

Don't we still have to buy our ProTools system from the dealer assigned to our part of the country? Some of these posts make it sound like we can buy from any dealer.
