Here's a good one. I upgraded my account
yesterday at Mobile Me (www.me.com) to
a larger disk quota in the "cloud".

Today, it still wasn't reflecting on the iDisk
icon on the Snow Leopard desktop.

Apparently it can take up to *** 48 hours *** (!)
for the change to reflect on the cloud servers.

This is remarkable considering modern
logical volume group and disk size extension
technology.

In fact, it doesn't even require that as it is just
the twiddle of a bit in a "quota" flag and the various
software that writes to the disks in the farm that
read the bit and return yes/no depending on
whether it is full or not for the current operation.

I am astounded and surprised at the delay.

Caveat emptor.
