    I just talked to a guy on chat and he said my laptop is in the final stage of production and is shipping in the next "3-4 days." My ESD is 08/09, so I am having a hard time believing this. Do you guys think he was making stuff up, or do you think it will really ship in 4 days?

    My Dell rep said my 1520 is being delivered by Jesus.

    Unfortunately biblical experts cannot agree when that will occur.

    :(

    I wouldn't doubt it, but don't expect it to happen.

    You'll see it getting delivered just as you're being "raptured" and floating up to heaven. Then some heathen will come over and grab it.

    I hope it is true because I have practically the same system and I ordered it on the same date as you did.
