Last Thursday...the one that just passed? Damn, lucky guy. I've got a huge delay because I changed my order. Damn, what a mistake. Well, it was worth it...but DAMN IT.

I ordered mine by phone last Wednesday. I bet it would have been here soon if I hadn't switched the monitor... :(

Some of my co-workers don't get this. They insist on saying 3 days for connectivity, when it's 3-5 BUSINESS days. We rarely get yelled at, though. I just prefer to say the actual time it will take. I think they want to amke the sale, so they fudge the hookup time.

Hm...is there any place online that sells Dell monitors, other than Dell themselves? I'm looking for a 1907FP, and while their prices are nice, I still can't apply any coupons.

It says:
Coupons Entered
The following coupons have been entered but require additional information or do not meet eligibility requirements. Click "View Details" link(s) for more information.
Save 20% off Dell 2007WFP, 2007FP and 1907FP flat panel monitors."

I click Details and it shows nothing at all. o_O
