    Hey guys, I ordered an Inspiron 1520 Spring Green, and I'm wondering if you other people who also ordered Spring Green are experiencing delays like those who ordered Midnight Blue.

    Mine is so far In Production after one day which to me seems good, but I'd like to hear other people stories as well!

    I heard of one guy getting delayed by spring green. If you want to see your laptop within the next two weeks, your only option is jet black.

    I think "in production" starts pretty much immedately. And "Build" (a sub stage within production) can last weeks :(i

    Everyone will be delayed save for Jet Black. This seems to be an inevitability. I'm just going to wait it out as I really want red.....

    It most likely is delayed. I ordered a Spring Green 1420 on July 31 and the estimated ship date is September 5.

    seems like they have a surplus of jet blacks. I'm not the biggest fan of the jetblack color. for me it's either all black (like the vostro) or it's not black.
