That was then followed by >the "Backorder" email. Nothing since. 4 people at Gateway during 4 calls, (obsessiveness and slow to comprehend as I am) confirmed that the first email you get, when printed out, will in fact qualify for the rebate. But from the day you got that email, you have 30 days until you have to put the rebate in the mail and have it postmarked less than 30 days from purchase. Apparently not from the time you receive the drive. Also, you ordered yesterday, got and got that backorder notice an hour later. Aurora said that a shipment came in today, and orders that were pending were showing up on their computers as having been processes. I ordered today, got the order notification, but did NOT get one of those backorder notifications. At least not YET. And I may not. She said that if the order can be processed and sent in 3-5 days, that notice doesn’t get sent out. But if it turns out that within 3-5 days after my order, they run out of stock again before they get to processing my order, I WILL be sent one of those notices. That will mean that they have to put in yet another re-supply order. In that case, it may take another 10 days to receive notice back from their supplier on whether they have enough stock to ship. So I’ll just keep a close eye on my email and the calendar. If things start to feel edgy, I can always cancel the order.
