    Is there a typical day when status changes occur online?

    I know the notebooks for the US are made in Maylasia. Do they ship to US Dell sites daily are do they bulk ship on certain days?

    These sort of questions belong in the subforum for shipping/customer issues.

    Since Malaysia treats their workers like slaves, they work all of the time. Not being racial just pointing out a fact. I would like to think that a person over the age of 14 is assembling my laptop (or at least looking at while waiting for a screen to come in).

    The US is comparable to Malaysia then... The US Dell factory in Round Rock works weekends and shipping is also done on weekends.

    The reason I know this is because my systems went into Delivery prep yesterday and today have a Purolator tracking number. (Yes, purolator is Canadian). I just spoke with a Rep on the phone, however, who told me that the systems have left round Rock and are in transit.

    This would verify that transportation is also active on the weekend.
