    Maybe you should as well because the second line in your signature is completely unintelligible. :D
    But I agree, why should we care about this UPS delay? Boo hoo.

    "A FLIGHT DELAY OCCURRED BECAUSE OF MECHANICAL REASONS"

    This excuse covers anything under the sun so that you cant demand any refund...pilot had to poop so he was late, oops we were late in fueling the plane, oops the bags got to the plane late, ooops the traffic controllers screwed up again, etc

    oh, I just meant that it's unbelievable how delays came from both ups and lenovo at the same time. Of my 5 million purchases online, that's the first time ive ever seen such a delay, and for it to happen after my nearly 1 month wait for lenovo, I can pretty much believe that pigs can fly

    Mechanical reasons are no biggie. A biggie is when the plane crashes with your order...XD

    What do you have to complain about? I'm guessing you have been waiting 2 1/2 weeks or less for your laptop to ship. You should be more than happy when you're witnessing people who have ordered weeks before you but you're recieving your laptop weeks before them.

    Try 5 weeks, but I see your point, of course people who ordered before me have it worse. There are kids who are starving in Africa too. I should happy to even get a laptop. ok, no more sarcasm, but yeah point is, it's relative, but I still want to gripe

    Stop tying up Lenovo's phone lines!

    UPS will make 2 more delivery attempts. Monday morning, just leave a note to the UPS driver to leave the package with one of your neighbors.

    This is not really Lenovo's fault, but UPS. UPS plane got delayed, not the shipment from Lenovo (though they may have delayed shipment, as with many other people).
