I thought I would pass this along...this was posted on the Dell Community Forum website earlier today.
"Current as of 11/08/04
I'm posting the component leads hoping this will help some of you that have questions about your individual orders. These are for order placed today and are estimates and subject to change.
On the 9100 and the XPS the 256MB Radeon 9800 XT video adaptor is on a 14 business day lead
The Inspiron 700M is on an 8 business day lead
The Inspiron 9200 is on an 18 business day lead
On the Inspiron 5160 the GeForce FX G05200 video adaptor is on a 7 business day lead
All other Inspirons are on a 5 business day lead
All lead times listed above are business day lead times which do not include Saturdays, Sundays or holidays. They project the number of days or additional days in which a order would take if that system were ordered today. An order placed today would take the number of business days projected above plus one day.
BLA is backlog affected, which includes all orders previously placed that haven't shipped which include the component or base system that is on an extended lead. The expected ship date is then calculated from the date that the item went on the extended lead."
