    I couldn't spot a thread for this particular notebook in Australia, so... here we are.

    Has anyone here ordered one of these machines in Australia, and how long did it take? The lady I spoke to said it shouldn't take more than 10 working days, and most of my friends with Dells have gotten theirs in 3-5, although none of them have this particular machine. I've never brought a laptop before, so I'm a leetle impatient :D (Read: bouncing off the walls.) I asked her to prioritize the order if possible as I'm getting an internship with an Architect and need it asap, and according to the Order Status site construction was started the day I ordered it, but is this a normal thing?
    Some people mentioned a 3-5 day shipping option, but the rep didn't tell me anything about it and I didn't see it on the site, so I'm guessing that's only available in the US? None of my Aussie friends have had any complaints with customer support either?

    I'm getting a 1520, Spring Green, Intel Core2Duo Processor T7500 (2.2 Ghz), Vista Home Premium, Dell Wireless 355 Bluetooth Module, 4 GB of DDR2 SDRAM, 15.4" UltraSharp Widescreen WSXGA+ (1680x1050) Display with Truelife, 250GB SATA hard drive, Internal 8X DVD+/-RW Combination Drive with dual layer write capabilities, NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT, Intel(R) 4965AGN Wireless-N Mini-Card, 9-cell battery.

    Thanks!
