I logged onto my laptops account today (as I do every single day about 5 times a day- roll ) and saw that my status has finally changed to SHIPPED for my MacBook!!! D This is a good day.

I was approved on 8/9. Which one did you order, stagim? I forgot. I think that the MacBooks are being shipped out first, because I know Tholek ordered a Vaio, and he hasn't gone shipped yet.

Congrats. Please post pics if you can. )

This is sort of infuriating though. I have to wait longer for an older laptop. (

nice the support ticket i sent month ago said this.

Your laptop order was placed with our vendor. The Sony model you ordered was not in stock and we have placed an order for a similar Sony model with updated specs. As soon as tracking becomes available we will provide for you in your account.

Sweet.. that means its coming with a 100gb HD not a 80gb )

Whoa, wait a second. What model number was the one you ordered, and why do you think the new one will have a 100GB HD? (I have an idea, but I could be wrong)

Yeah, I knew. (Thanks for confirming it) )

I hate to tell you, but the FS940 is, and was, what's listed on laptops.freepay,

That was what I was referring to. PCMall listed FS920 specs on their FS940 listing, and apparently Gratis copied it. Now did people get the 920 in the past? Yup, but laptops.freepay stated it's a 940, and specs on freepay sites have traditionally been less than what's correct.

I suppose if you're a "glass half full" or "make lemons out of lemonade" type, you might consider that an upgrade, but I expected the 940, so it's not quite an upgrade to me. (
