If you dont have a 7800go (non gtx) i think you will get it on time

Yes but the 9400 model .. not the M170 that has the 7800 GTX

Right, but i was wondering how close your order came to the estimated date?

3 days early from the original shipping estimate
1 day late from when it hit TN.

Ordered last this past saturday and my computer should be at my doorstep within the next couple of hours. (Today is tuesday). I live in Tennesse, though, so that probably helps! I'm excited.

Mine was almost 2 months late. However, I was caught in the 7200 rpm 100 gig HDD shortage.

Ordered E510 last night, just checked status and it was already built and shipped to TN and is currently on a UPS truck on it's way to me. Got basic free ground shipping (3-5 days) and UPS tracking says it'll be here in 2 days.

You probably didn't want to see this did you?!? LoL

Ordered 11pm on 04/03 scheduled delivery is before 5pm on 04/06.

^^Wow thats quick.

That is quick but the desktops are made in the US I believe so that makes it quicker than a notebook would be.

As far as I'm aware Dell only stores refurbs in Austin Texas now. Tennessee is just the US distribution hub now. Dell opened their 5th assembly plant in Malaysia to take over such tasks already. And they restructed Tech Support to remove all European locations to US and India.

I ordered my Insipiron 9400 with 7800 go card on Feb 21st, the arrival date was 22nd march so i gave them an email saying if ive got to wait then cancel. I got a reply saying that it will be put on priority despatch and i recieved it 2 days later!
I was pleased about that, im in the UK by the way.

The page will update after it's shipped. Mine initially said April 17-21th and now that it has shipped it says the 7th-11th. At that point you'll have your tracking number and delivery estimate from UPS
