I too acknowledge this is off topic, but David started it :) ... I am in Florida and I've seen similar shipping delays. I've been waiting 9 days for 2 hard drives to ship. They are still "in production" status. Luckily, it is not critical I get these in ASAP. I've also seen slow shipping of MD1000s and PowerEdge servers. And I never get an accurate shipping ETA. Most of our hardware doesn't need to ship ASAP, but I still feel the frustration. - -- Jeremy Smith Systems Administrator eSilo, LLC. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkppt3AACgkQgVS2ACgBQ6IB9gCfVlt+wv5QKEAlzEkNVNmjDEOp BREAn3u8e7+/sZiA5PgRohyGNaTyUGvi =JMto -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
