When will I get it?

.

At the top of the page where you're customizing, there's an estimated recieve date, based on Limited Availability items, if any.

thinkjose,

Please explain how you didn't place an order "per se" but are still in production?

When are you going to order? If you order now my guess would be in two weeks and if you order in a month it will be a week and a half.

Whats your style?

You can call it the art of ordering, without ordering!

Enter the dragon one of the best movies ever!

Hi thinkjose1, I almsot got the same system you got.

I instead got a Intel Pentium 4 Processor w/ HT Technology 3.0GHz and 512MB DDR PC-2700 at 333MHz - 1x512 SO-DIMM.

My order is delayed because I got the Alienware Premium Backpack. I have to wait until July 30th, but hey, I just ordered yesterday

What color did you get yours?

I got mine in blue with the 15.1 screen. I was debating between the two sizes but the color won me over.

thinkjose,

Where do you live? AW is in Miami, FL so if you can tell us where you live we can assume a better answer to your "how long" question.

Congrats on the lapper!

No worries! I'm also a Jersey native...if you're speaking of NEW Jersey, USA...Born and raised in Haddonfield, NJ.

Werd!

I live in south florida. Wish I could just drive to the manufacturing plant or something and get it quicker

Hi Craig. I read your review as well and it was great. How come it took so long for you to get it. Did it get shipped out to Alaska or something?

Your profile says NC, did you get it in jersey or NC?

QJ,

Nice attention to detail my sleuthy friend

I used to live in Orlando, Fl...moved the Raleigh, NC in Feb of this year. I had ordered my laptop just before the huge holiday rush so that didn't hold me up...what DID hold me up was me calling them every other day changing my configuration :-/

So I had to pay sales tax :PooP: but they gave me such a great deal over the Dual Channel debacle (<--just love that word) that it all worked out quite nicely on the wallet.

Again, welcome to the forums man!

A little late advice: Get rid of the book bag and let your system come... they told me there is a 3 week wait for those... just get your stuff built and shipped... once you get it there is a 10% discount on accesories which will counterbalance your shipping charges...

Well Jose i see your thread is like a game in a way....fun

Well I will guess it will take 4 weeks. First it depends on how you will be purchasing your AW Area 51m...CC is the fastest moves you right along, using AW financing is a week process in itself. Next you have the ATI 9700 video module to deal with, that will take 3 weeks from the time you order (even though AW does not mention its limited on there ordering site) and the premium backpack is on back order as well. So your first few phases will go fast up to 4 then really slow since there are items on your list that are on back order. It will take you about 2 weeks just to get to phase 6 and there you will sit till the 9700 card arrives. After you get to phase 6 you will have to wait a week or so for the 9700 card. Once that arrives things move pretty fast from there. You will wake up one morning and check your status on AW website and POW!!!! youll be on phase 9 then the next day BAM!!! phase 12 and make sure your sitting down the next time you check youll be on phase 13 and you know it will ship that day. But keep in mind that if you have any accessories that are back ordered and not availible once your system is completed AW will not just ship the computer or do any partial shipments. You ordered the system as a complete package and thats how it will be shipped. So if something is going to hold up your order thats not truely needed right here and now, cancel it and reorder it on a new order and it will be shipped separately. Finally racing to check your personal email youll have an automated email from Fed EX (later that day you hit phase 13) with all your shipping information and tracking numbers and most important ESTIMATED ARRIVAL DATE. Then its just waiting for the Fed Ex guy or girl to show up at your door step. That ESTIMATED ARRIVAL DATE you make up some really good excuse to your boss why you cant come to work today. Stomach ache, backs out, kids sick, root canal appointment whatever you need to do to stay home that day and wait. You dont want your wife calling you at noon telling you your package is here and you know you have 5 more hours at work and an hours drive home....no way youll want to wait 6 hours knowing your computer is waiting at home for you......But once that day come...youll know your part of new friends and family.

ENJOY!!!!
