    is this shipping date right?
    I ordered an x61 on 1 Dec. I asked my acquisition manager today about the ship date and he said that it would ship dec 20.
    This is significantly more than the 1-2 weeks indicated on their site.
    Is it possible that he was talking about the DELIVERY date?

    No, this is the ship date. But, do not worry. Usually they ship one week after the order.

    point well made. Mine shipped out today.

    I guess that with ship dates THAT liberal, Lenovo always looks good

    Isn't there a word for situations like this?

    Last spring and summer, people were getting ship dates a month or two from their order date. Consider yourself lucky.

    And note there is a separate forum just for Dell's fulfillment problems.

    Ordered x61 on the first of December...
    First time I called in to add a USB 2.0 SuperDrive, the CSR said it'd take 10 days.
    - Miracously, I got my USB 2.0 SuperDrive the same day I ordered it. But of course, I wanted the laptop more...

    Called again next day, CSR lady says it'll take 3.5 weeks....

    ??? -_-
