Might as well piggy back on this one :) I'm a few days behind you. Simular systems, maybe they'll both ship around the same time..

Stage 1 Sept 22
Stage 2 Sept 25
Stage 3 Sept 25

Does anyone know what the difference between stage 3 and stage 4 are? I am confused by the process. Stage 3 is stress testing. Stage 4 is engineering/assembly?? How can they stress test before the machine has been "engineered"? or assembled? I am not an engineer but the basic order seems odd to me.

Stage 3 is pre-build stress testing of components before they are installed in your tower / case etc. They can do quite a bit of testing before investing time in the actual building out of the tower. This is a step most home builders don't have the luxury of performing. It requires a test lab basically.

Stage 4 is physically installing that pre-tested hardware into your tower and is where the bulk of the build takes place.

That's my understanding.

They called me last night and said they were out of the motherboard in my build. I would have hoped for notification a little sooner in the process.

Trying to be patient and think about how happy I will be with my new system.

I do not have a ship date. I think it is reasonable to be optimistic about it shipping this week unless QA or testing finds a problem.

Still stage 3 here as well. Yes this is quite anxiety producing. Why am I not a "verified customer" like you guys? They have my money... I am a customer.

Did you maybe use a different email address when you registered for the forum? That's all I can think of.

Yep, email address on the forums has to match, EXACTLY, the email used to order.  Caps, punctuation, etc.

Would be pretty cool if they had Web cams in the assembly lines with some way for us to ID our machines. I'd probably get nothing done all week. Maybe I'll luck out and hit stage 4 today.

The fact that my current computer has been hard crashing daily is not helping the waiting process.

It seems to me, given current circumstances, that if they had cameras on the production line you would probably be very bored watching your computer sit there.

Mine updated to Stage 7 today. Hit Stage 7 on the 15th business day from when it went into Stage 1. Looks like it won't be shipped out until next week (Monday hopefully) which would be the 16th business day to give some perspective.

Lol.. congrats to everyone that moved stages this week. No comment on the nasty Web cams.. it's 220 in CA.. maybe there is hope still. Not moving 1 level in 5 biz days is less than ideal.. but I have 3 other pc's to keep me busy. Gives me time to detail clean the man cave while I wait. Have a good weekend all.

I contacted them on Sept 22nd and was told it was being built and that they do as 10-15 days to complete an order.

Then a week went by and I didn't hear much and was told they were out of the motherboard in my build and would I like to pay $56 to upgrade ... i said yes.

The next day the order went to stage 5 and it has been there for about a week.

I will call them tonight if I do not hear from them today. I appreciate things come up that slow down the process, but it would be nice to get more info on the status than a stage email every 2 weeks.
