I ordered mine Saturday 3/9 and it shipped Wednesday 3/13. I had to call today to get a tracking number because it didn't show up on the online order status. It is being shipped FedEx Ground. My g/f ordered a Dell 4400 on Tuesday 3/12 and UPS delivered it to her office today!

[numatrix]

Just got mine today. It was in assembly as of yesterday. Guess their order system is not real time.

 

[nealr]

mine shipped today. I ordered it on Monday. ...
It was after they pulled the rebate listing, but I have the PDF saying I'll get the rebate, and I didn't upgrade the memory.
I just wish I ordered 5... could've ebay'ed the others

 

[dwil]

Got all 5 I ordered today.

 

[AskMeADeal]

<< Got all 5 I ordered today. >>



Does this mean e-gay will soon be flooded by these cheap machines 🙂

 

[Tanner]

DELL would NEVER cancel an order OH NOOOOOOOOOO! 😀 hehehe

(just jealous of ppl who got hot deals!) 😀

 

[dwil]

Nope, I have a customer who needed all 5. So no Ebay, they are paid for and will be delivered tomorrow.

Dang....

 

[blstriker]

Mine says that they're in transit to the delieverer, for the past two days...:|

 

[FreebieBoy]

my motherboard fried can i still get on this i need a cheap computer just a barebone would be fine too.

 

[krakatowa]

Got mine yesterday. First time to order a system from d@ll. 🙂

 

[jtw99]

Judging by the prices they are getting on ebay, these wouldn't be great money-makers.

 

[jtw99]

OT: Would somebody recomend sites or books to help a server-illiterate (me) get this server up and running?

Just a thought...

Actually they do have support forums that are pretty active, along with documents related to the machine you bought.

Is anyone getting useful tracking info from Dell? Mine shows as shipped on 3/15. The tracking info shows:
Current Status: In Transit To Local Carrier
Sent by: UNITED PARCEL SERVICE
Tracking Number: Not Available

 

[kklepack]

Same here, but I called DELL and got UPS tracking #, statets out for delivery.

 

[sync]

I guess I don't have to be concerned about tracking info anymore - it just arrived.🙂

 

[weasel]

if you have not received yours..... do this:


get your order # from the website

call dell's order track Phone number

they will give you the shipping info (shipper + tracking number)

Mine (not this system, but a notebook) showed In transit to local carrier for 2 days as well...

By getting and checking the FedEX tracking number, fedex had "misplaced" the package... freaking fools.

 

[kklepack]

Got mine delivered to my wife's work.
