    You're not WUXGA are you?

    Be grateful, I have to pay an extra $200 in taxes to get mine before I leave...

    Nope too small for my eyes. I was going to call up my reseller and pay the $200 but then they said it had already been shipped by sager.

    Thinking about it now... My laptop cost $2500. *sob sob sob*

    I hope it's worth it. Otherwise I could always stop at the post office on the way to the airport.

    Mine shipped from PNB on the 21st, so I'm hoping it will get here any day now but am also braced for the possibility of it taking another couple weeks.

    Where in Afghanistan are you?

    Im at BAF site II. If you're at a main base expect to get yours around 10 days from the ship date. If your at one of the smaller F.O.B's just add a couple days on top of that. I've recieved stuff as little as 6 days, but I average about 10 days here. My lappy should be here any day.....sooooo anxious.

    Mine is "Out for delivery" so it's on its last truck.

    I don't think the guy makes it here until about 5 though, that's what time he came around yesterday. I practically screamed at him from down the street to ask if he had a package for me.

    That's weird, I have two packages bound for me today, but they left from the same depot at different times. One at 5:07 and one at 5:25. Unless that's just the scan time and it takes a while to finish loading the truck.

    Gosh the driver's gonna hate me. There are two flights of stairs up to my front door.

    Fedex or UPS?

    I know Fedex uses different trucks depending if it went ground or air, no idea about UPS.

    UPS.

    And I have a feeling he's going to leave them on the stairs. I talked to him yesterday and when I explained that one would require signature he said he could hide it somewhere instead.

    I hope I get home before him.

    I know. The laptop box is 16lbs and I already felt bad about that, but the new clutch kit I ordered is another 8lbs so now I'll feel horrible if he climbs all the way up there and I'm not home.

    Let the man be excited and have fun with his system.

    When he calms down and feels his palms burned off he will come back and give us a user review (aka complain :) )

    I already started my user review in the Do I win the ... prize thread.

    I should ask Chaz to change its name.

    I will be continually adding to it.

    And for what it's worth, I haven't burned my palms off yet. Mostly because I tend to type ergonomically (and it has nothing to do with Gophn), and mostly because it doesn't get that hot. Sure my harddrive went up to 68'C at one point. Sure the palmrest was hot, but it wasn't unbearably or untouchably hot. Maybe I have a high thermal tolerance.

    Anyway, look at my review! Or what bits of it there are.

    My laptop will be shipped today I ordered it 28 of August, i asked him about overheating he answered

    "Yes, your order has already been built, tested, and burned. And, it will be wrapped up and shipped out today.

    Yes, we have tested. And, there is no overheating problem. Thank you."

    I ordered HDD 200gb 7200, i hope he said true.
