It's on it's way!

Woohoo. My computer has finally shiipped! After being delayed by the Christmas rush, a company move to a new facility and a batch of bad video cards, my baby has finally left the nest!

Congratz Nlincourt!

Originally posted by Nlincourt I placed the order on 12/14/07 at 8:14 PM. It was a LONG Christmas and New years vacation without my new toy.   Now I have to figure out a good excuse for taking the day off that it is supposed to arrive. <cough> <cough> I feel a bout of computeritis coming on.

My whole thing is that sooner or later you will run into problems with computers, it's inevitable...it's going to happen someday.  It makes it so much better when you have people such as Digital Storm which are patient and really working with you over the phone to get the computer working properly.  It even gives you more experience should you ever run into a problem like that again, you may know what to do right off the bat.

Some people are not patient when something they bought ends up with errors, but thats the computer world we all live in.   I am a very patient person, If I would ever start kicking up a fit it would be that I am seriously getting ripped off and a company isn't doing anything to solve a problem.

I am a firm believer that a person that loves computers and playing games on them is going to run into issues....it's just going to happen. 

Computers are really weird, I mean think about it.  It runs perfectly for 3 months straight or something, then when you turn it on...randomly it starts messing up.  computers are so random it's quite freaky .

Ordered on 12/16, got it on 1/10. Long wait, but I'd rather have a comp that took a while to build and was put together correctly then some trash slapped together in 5 days like cyberpowerpc/ibuypower and the likes.

Originally posted by Nlincourt I think we can be greatful that the DS staff tests these systems the way that they do. I would hate to have them just slap it together and then not have it work when I got it. I am betting it is that bad batch of 8800 GT cards that they got that is delaying your system. When I called them on Tuesday 1/8/08, thats what they told me was delaying my system. They made mine a priority since it had been so long since I ordered.   <makes plans for a comfy cusion, a small fridge and port-a-potty so he doesn't have to leave the front window>

lol, Nlincourt!
