How long does it take?

I recently ordered a new Dell XPS1530,Intel T8300,4GB ram,250Gb hard drive,Intel 4965 AGN wireless mini card, dell wirless355 Bluetooth,AVer TV Expresscard TV Tuner TVT11, 4 years. At home service,complete care and lowjack service, 07/05/08. Found the number for automated detailed order status,in boxing stage as of yesterday,yet got email that order delayed till 08/01/08 today. Just wondering how long does it take to get a computer? I have also just looked in Stormroom and was totally freaked out by the stories I read there. Tell me it ain't so!!!!!!!!!! I also ordered and recieved Netgear wireless gigabit router WNR3500 and a bluetooth keyboard/mouse to use with this unit, from Dell.

    Honestly, no-one knows...

     

    My order was delayed about three times and arrived at least 2 months after the initial expected delivery date.

    I ordered my XPS M1530 the end of June and received it the second week in July, so about 3 weeks. It really depends on how you have it configured, but don't believe all of the horror stories you read.:smileyhappy:

    I finally got it in! Not quite a month, all seems well,got connected wireless in a flash! A little harder to get connected to my network printer! I still haven't figured out how to get it to do the aero thang lol. TV looks killer with the hi-def screen. The keyboard was skipping /not entering charactors as typed while setting up LoJack, etc. but seems ok now! The playing begins! Good Luck All!
