Hi everybody.
Im at stage 5 BUT unlike everyone else who hopes their rig is with them soon, I am the opposite. I hope DS take loads of time...until the end of January... the reason? Well, my order is being shipped to Wisconsin, but Im am 6000 miles away in Ireland. I dont get to Wisconsin until the end of January because of work...and I dont want the rig sitting there. Plus my wife would surely try and sabotage it...she knows that ill be spending a lot of "quality" time with my beautiful system. Anyone else living in "opposite bizarro world" where they want their system to be delayed for awhile? Im probably alone in this
By the way, DS are bloody spectacular |

You know I always wonder why people start calling and complaining when their system is stuck in a stage. I was stuck a few days and didn't mind it at all. If they need to keep it longer I would want them to keep it. I want to be sure that when I receive it there are no problems.

I can definitely relate, just many other things going on right now, that I want to get done before the PC arrives. In fact, if it does show up when expected, it will probably just have to set for a day or two.
I only checked my FedEx tracking code one time, to make sure it worked. I haven't looked since. ![]() Edited by Tidgxor - 06 Dec 2010 at 2:19pm |

Can I ask, you guys, or most all have your rigs. Besides turning them on, what was the first cool thing you did with it?

I am in the same boat as you. My rig was actually built and completed about a week ago. I asked DS to please hold off on shipping because I will not be returning to the US until the end of December. They didn't have a problem with that. I'm sure if you ask them to hold onto it they will gladly do it.
