Post when XPS M1330 ordered and when/if shipped

I ordered 1 unit on 6/27 and 5 more on 7/6

 

All ordered from my Premier site.........

 

Wait a minuteeeeeeeeeee ....

... you ordered SIX (6) m1330's? Wowwwwwwwwwwww.....

 

I know someone that has 4 in stock, fully loaded. If you are interested, PM me, I might just cancel my dell order and order one from him. It is a few dollars more than I paid but I got a discount.

 

Maybe the people who ordered through epp and whatnot are the only ones getting the lack of updates on order shipping.

 

Maybe... I would be surprised if I had a lo-jack waiting for me outside tomorrow. The lo-jack has a est. shipping date of August 17th though (along with the laptop).

 

Ordered: 7/9/2007
Ship Date: 8/24/2007

 

Dang, 8/24 and you ordered the same date as me, figures!

 

I'm guessing everyone is in pre-production? You can call 800-433-9014 to find out your exact status. (I think US orders only)

 

Exact status...is this automated?

 

yep.. although when i called it said mine will ship on july 22nd?!! what the heckkkk..calling again to confirm lol

 

Shoot, mine is in process so it won't give me a date.

 

Yea.... it's definitely automated. Not sure if it updates more quickly then the online status page.

 

I am very excited to get this computer and the sooner the better.

 

I must have watched Andrews movie on the M1330 about 50 times!

 

We are all going insane .... LOL.

 

I am considering installing OSX on it just for the heck of it.

 

OK... maybe not that insane!!!

 

lol...I sold my MBP this week and am thinking maybe I shouldn't have...lol Nah, not really. The MBP was too big in my opinion to carry around and considering that I am getting into networking, the company I am going to start working for wants me to run on a PC, eventhough I had windows on the Mac, they didn't want boot issues or whatever. Plus, using a Mac doesn't allow me to stay on top of Windows like I should. I have used Mac for the past few years now and I was a little rusty on windows, especially vista, but I bought an XPS desktop a few weeks back to get back on windows.

My XPS desktop is BAD TO THE BONE!!! 2.6 GHz Core2Duo, 4GB Ram...its loaded and it was a scratch'n'dent but it didn't have a scratch on it!

Anyway, back to the wonderful M1330.

 

Just don't right click...your new lappy may COMBUST!

 

Read-um and weep!

 

Bone head! lol Mac's have right click too, you can put any two click mouse on a Mac, it just removes the ctrl+click.

 

I hate you! All I have to say, is that better be edited in Photoshop...or was it because you got the black case...lol j/k

 

Wait, you got the T5250? Plus you got the integrated graphics card? Did you get the fingerprinter reader? That may be why yours shipped so fast!

 

All I am doing is the web browsing and office stuff. So I got the minimum. I just want a pretty case.

 

CodeMonkey....maybe this means July 10th is the REAL RTS date then?

Congrats on the laptop though, I'm excited to hear what you think about it!

PS: Is it weird if we too track your order!

 

Ok it's been 5 minutes and I already feel bad just for messing with Apple2PC *edit* and Ryan */edit*. So yeah it's a fake screenshot. Looks pretty good though huh.

After seeing the other screen shot I just could not help myself!!! SORRY

 

Never trust a screen shot posted by a graphic designer!

Ahhh crap I for got to change my est delivery date to January!! The whole scam is blown!

 

yeah I figure it was fake b/c I tried to track your order through DHL

 

Yeaaaaaaa... i got suspicious. LOL... thanks for dashing our hopes guys (or introducing mass confusion amongst the n00b's)

 

I do believe this means you're going to hell!

 

i heard your the boat guy and it takes a month for you to get stuff?

 

Yeah it DHL Sea Express!!! It comes over from China on a junk!

Stupid me for forgetting to change the 8 to a 7.

 

If you post on this forum you are no longer a noob!

 

Great, I am no longer a noob!!!

Hey Monkeyman, I am also a graphic designer and web designer. I want to get more into graphic design though...can we talk over PM about some stuff?

 

Haha, I thought it was fake. The EST. Shipping Date doesn't make any difference in receiving the notebook before ours .

Good joke tho.

 

I think this was done by HTML code.... would've been much easier that way. If you know basic HTML, then it would be pretty easy to manipulate.

 

Of course, it would have been easy to manipulate, if infact it was html. But I am sure it is pulled from a DB so not sure how easy that would make it. Plus, hopefully you can get all of the .css styles and stuff you would need. May take a few minutes, but I am sure I could knock it out and you wouldn't know the difference.

That's what I did it only took a minute. In Photoshop I would have been masking things out, and copy and pasting. ;P Editing the HTML makes it impossible to see if it's a fake. Unless I mess up on the est delivery date that is.

@Apple2PC: In Firefox "File->Save Page As.." Saves all images, CSS, and HTML to your hard drive. Then you can open it up.

 

That would be me as well...I'm living over in Okinawa. Still trying to get ahold of the guys that manage military purchases.

 

Yeah but I find that stuff is sometimes missing from the files, rarely do I get them all when I do that, but I guess that page doesn't consist of much.

 

Trebuin,
I have an order on hold (not paid as I selected Dell Purchase Plan) from Dell Japan. Awesome specs for 150,000 yen or $1350US. PM me if you are interested. I can give you the order number so you can see what you can do. I have two on order in the US so I don't need the Japan one anymore. I got in before they raised the price of the LED display from 3,000 yen to 15,000 yen.

 

PS. I am pretty sure that Dell does not send computers via DHL. I always get my laptops and desktops via FedEx Ground and my accessories/warranty parts via DHL.

 

I just used my 24in monitor shipping invoice as a template. So that explains it.

 

all 4 of my dell pcs came via DHL 2 weeks ago..i get EVERYTHING dell via DHL

 

My sys has these:
8400 nVidia
2x9 cell batteries (great for deployments)
2.2GHz Processor
2 Gigs ram
200GB Hard disk
Backlit LED Display
Crimson Red

I ended up getting this for $2100, $2500 before discounts

What's the specs on the ones you have?

 

I just need to get a hold of one of the dell reps that manages military during their working hours (10pm for me) to see if I can have them change the order to priority USPS...

I think they use registered shipping via usps ground...which ground goes through the boats. I'd pay to have registered priority because it would get here 5 weeks sooner

 

5 weeks is a... huge difference. Heh....

 

You at Yokosuka?

 

no, Kadena
