    Congrats! I hope you enjoy your system! I ordered my NP8130 on Feb 8 from Powernotebooks.com :( Haven't heard anything from them. I believe mine will come next next week if I'm lucky.

    I think you mean you are excited :)

    That's going to be a great system! SB with 6970M would be my choice. But you can't really lose with any of these configurations.

    I had my order through LPC Digital per my sig, but if you made the first round then I should have too. Too bad it is UPS Ground... I've never had luck with them like I've had with FedEx or USPS. Those companies deliver early but UPS is usually 5 business days and no sooner. Heck, they've come late for me before.

    ha, if it was $100 i wouldn't have done it.. think it was around $75 iirc for overnighting my shell from clevo to myth (to speed up my build time) and to overnight it to me. should get it to me a week or more ahead of when i'd regularly get it

    Congrats! Glad to see these things are finally moving. Of course this means soon I'll have to live without my baby for a couple weeks while it gets fixed. :(

    I just got my Email a few days ago from Xoticpc as well, I originally placed my order on 1/24/2011. I have a question for one of the Xoticpc guys on here, I pre-ordered the NP5160, If I decided to switch it to the NP8130 when you guys call me to validate my pre-order, am I going to be placed all the way at the bottom of the pre-orders? or do I keep my current place in line specific to date?

    Nope, I ordered Jan 18th, with phase 2 last thursday, and I was told that it could take anywhere between the full 6-12 business days. So this could mean late March if it does take that long.
