    Is that normal? to get to the boxing stage in 3 days? The estimated ship date is the 16th of august though. When do you think it'll arrive?

    I ordered the 1520 with
    2.2ghz 800mhz 4M l2 cache
    jet black
    2 gigs ddr2 667mhz
    wsxga+
    256mb geforce 8600m gt
    160 gig 7200 rpm
    vista premium
    8x dvd+-RW
    integrated high definition audio
    intel next gen AGN
    2 megapixel camera
    bluetooth mod
    dell travel remote

    I have a problem that im going out of town between the 3rd and 11th or so... Do you think it will be shipped while i'm gone?

    I guess I should have ordered jet black because I ordered my system on 7/26 and still no boxing.

    Seriously...lucky jet black bastards :p. My advice to anyone unhappy with the ship date is to call and chat with reps and complain that other orders are shipping before yours that were placed after with the same specs. In doing this I received free overnight shipping and an expedited order slated originally to ship 8/10 but now promised to be shipped by 8/3.

    does anyone know the exact reason the jet blacks are shipping out days after ordering? is it because black is the most popular color? does dell have more of the black lids in stock or something?
