    Hi, so I guess I'm just impatient and excited but I wanna make sure things are going smoothly. How long should this order status of "Order Processing" take? It's been this way for 3 days now. And does Dell really change the Order Number often? It's very confusing as it said that my first (original) order number (the one in the email) is cancelled, but I found that I had another order number which status is on "Order Processing". It is the exact same laptop, same specs and all, but it's just weird that they had to change the order number.

    Its really dependent on the number of configuration changes you have made. In my experience, screen upgrades take much longer than just changing RAM etc

    The only upgrade I made was the screen upgrade. Why so fast? Doesn't it say 15 business days or something?
