    3 days exactly. Meaning that it shipped the exact time it initially went into boxing three days later.

    That sucks. I hope they ship your laptop out soon. I can only imagine how frustrating this must be for you, esp. considering that you ordered yours way back on 7/9. :eek:

    thanks, and yea I've waited the entire summer for this thing. dell screws me over at ever corner. whether it's backordered parts, delaying my order twice, or taking more than a week to get out of boxing.

    Well when I called the automated order status line around 11 am, it said it was in the hands of the courier and waiting to be shipped on the next business day. So I have to wait monday or tuesday for mine. I got next day shipping.

    I feel sorry for you Farelli, ***** out dell for free stuff. Either that or sometime next week will be your big day
