Haha yea, I feel like I won an award or something. All the "nominees", the excitement to getting there, then the grand finale that leads into me holding my laptop on stage and thanking all the people the "contributed" to my decision. Haha.

How long does it take? Don't ask me - I've been in line for over three weeks now...but I am convinced it will be worth it. Welcome to the club!

I'm guessing you ordered at the right time, and we may be past some of the delays now. As I've posted elsewhere, mine is shipping now (ordered 1/25).

Im still waiting

They sent me a message that they were out of RAM. Yet they are claiming shipping within 5 days. I know everyone here is well aware of the phase game and it is part of the Alienware experience but it is just poor customer service.

I so think someone needs to have a woot-o-meter for phases..which makes a huge HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

when someone moves up a phase.

Just a thought.

Or

You could have dancing naked gay midgets which dance more and more as you rise up the phases..

Would just add a perk.

That is just wrong Andrew


Mine took about 2 weeks, start to finish, but I was part of that chassis delay.

Well worth it though!

I got an email about 1GB RAM delaying mine too. Well, the important thing is that I don't need the computer until August for college. Good thing I ordered well in advance.

So currently in phase 3/4 limbo.
