    Alright, I just ordered my first Dell computer, and I'm not sure how their system of getting the CTO computers out from their manufactering sites and to the consumer, me!

    Initially, in the Status window, it said "In production" and now it says "Processing Order." I received an email today telling me about this update. However, the "ship date" changed from 10/19 to 10/29-11/02. What exactly has happened here? People with experience, please let me know what's going on. Did I move a step forward or backward? Can i expect the system to ship MUCH eariler than it states, or what?

    Thanks in advance.
