Well, keep them shut. I do not want any part of your wind or back doors.

There is a forum titled Site Bugs & Suggestions, for just this sort of issue.
One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

Oh happy day. I thought I had one more week to wait for my new Dell Precision. They sandbagged me, and the laptop will arrive tomorrow. Crap, need to order my memory and SSD.
Woo hoo....
Any one reason why I boult the precision was that it had a matt lcd, not the glossy.

I've had two Precisions and I've been very happy with both. The matte screen does make a difference.

I've lived on an Inspiron for 4+ years. With a glossy screen. I'm looking forward to the new performance and expansion capabilities. I like the idea of being able to have multiple drives, batteries and what not in the system.

I think he is referencing the time you thought the delivery would take vs. the time it will take. Just a play on words.

You bought a Precision laptop, and shipping times were anything but precise. Irony.
It's not nearly as funny if I have to explain it...
