Sounds crazy but I BET some of you go through the same

I've been waiting for my 5720 to be made, now I'm waiting till Monday or Tuesday for arrival. I feel like I'm having a baby. Really worried about what state it will be in when it comes out of the box and whether everything will be working alright. Will I break down in tears upon finding dead pixels, etc.

I've even had nightmares. Last night I dreamed that my laptop came but that it was an ancient Toshiba with a cracked screen and cheesy fur trim around the edge, along with some document explaining how it was legal for them to give me this instead of my Sager. I haven't been right in the head all day.

Ha, you're a true geek! [if you don't mind me saying ]

I did the same thing with mine, as I do for every computer - "Will it be broken/DOA?", "Will it do what I want?", stuff like that.

I wasn't completely there in the head for the two weeks when I ordered mine and it was being built. Kept thinking about it . . and thinking about it. . .

Broken Toshiba? Genuine nightmare!
