I don't understand why this is so difficult. I bought a T61 today From CDW.com. It arrives tomorrow. I have a tracking number and all. It's not EXACTLY the spec I wanted. So I ordered more RAM to put in it. Whats the big deal? Why does everyone have to wait so long?

because we decided to order directly from the manufacturer. i thought it couldnt make it this much longer, i wanted to get a t61 and i ordered it before it was on CDW ect. also the prices were cheaper on direct site at the time... and i got 4 years of computrace along with 1 year of TPprotection

I thought I would link everyone to today's XKCD, because it is highly relevant:

:D :D :D That's funny! I wish I knew the UPS flight number my package is on. Then we could use a real-time flight tracker and watch it cross the ocean.

I was going to be posting something about that in which today's xkcd directly mirrors what I've been doing for a past few hours... But somebody else got to it and now I change my mind. It must be with all the geeks in here... ;)
BTW, I've BEEN TRACKING all the flights on flightaware.com just for kicks and based on my T61 tracking data, it left ICN on 6/24/07 @ 1:53AM their time. Since I assume the packages must go through Anchorage for refueling/maybe load/unloading and exports out of Lenovo's factory in Shenzhen, China I think all go through HKG (hong kong airport) to be loaded onto UPS's cargo flights plus the fact that I checked the Hong Kong airport's website (they publicly show the Cargo departure flights for some reason), there's a UPS flight #61 that goes HKG (Hong Kong)->ICN (Seoul, South Korea)->ANC (Anchorage, Alaska)->SDF (Louisville, Kentucky). So based on my estimates, my T61 is current in the air on this flight:

that's landing @ 1:09AM EDT. I *SURELY* hope it passes through their network fast enough/processed efficiently enough that it makes their cutoff so it gets to my local UPS location tomorrow (6/27-Hopefully they can make their promise and DELIVER 1 DAY EARLY which i've seen happen with UPS before.)
