    Hey guys, don't mean to rub it in, but my order just shipped today. I ordered it on 5/24 using the memorial day discount. In case you were wondering, my configuration is as follows:
    T7300 processor, 14.2 inch screen with camera, integrated graphics, 120gb hard drive, biometric reader,turbo memory.

    So if you're configuration is similar to what I have, expect yours soon!

    Congrats, I just love the T61. Great choise on the hardware, although I would choose for the 160 GB hard drive because that one is prependicular.

    panteedropper, did you have to go through the rebooking process? Did you ever change anything in your original order?

    I am actually very happy to hear this particular shipping news, as I ordered mine on the same day.

    haha i'm really sorry to burst your bubble...but that doesn't mean a whole lot. i've had at least 3 people report on receiving a notebook that they had ordered on the same day as me, with the exact same configuration.

    it blows.

    I originally made the order over the phone, the specs were identical but without the turbo memory. Unfortunately, I got disconnected so the gentleman emailed me his sales id and the order number(at this point it was not paid for yet)

    So I went ahead, modified the order with the turbo memory(heck it was only 30 bucks or so at the time) and submitted it. In terms of rebooking my order, I did not have to do that. I didn't receive any emails about getting free stuff because of the long wait like some of you guys did as well.
