    I've veen wondering if it's possible for an order to go from building to boxing on a weekend, or is it just a weekday thing.

    Does anyone have info on this?

    I highly doubt it. Most companies don't do much if any work on the weekends.

    Btw: What screen did you get? I got WSXGA+

    Dell is a 24/7 business so the answer is yes.

    When did you order yours, and what are your specs?

    I just went from boxing to shipping over the weekend so it sounds feasible, especially considering the different labor laws in production heavy countries.

    If you're in the US, call 1-800-433-9014 and enter your order number.

    I don't know how accurate either one is. The website says my ship date is 8/7, but the phone status doesn't give me any ship date at all - but that doesn't mean that I don't call that number 100 times a day checking my status. ;)

    I tried that number from Canada, and when I entered in my order number, it had told me that the order had shipped already as of...July 4th, 1998. lol I wish there was a Canadian number like that :(
