yup credit card

i sunday order and make payment, monday they already acknowledge my order.

i think so, because they will call the card holder to confirm the payment

around 3 days. instalment i dont have any idea, i made full payment straight.

oh yeah...me also got the order acknowledgement on monday....but where u got ur estimated delivery date ? i din gt it on my email de?

go the dell website. under right hand side there got 1 "order status".

click into it and fill in the Internet reference number which u can get it from ur acknowledgement email.

fill in ur email address. then click submit. then u can see ur estimated delivery date from there

btw u only can see ur estimate delivery date 3-5 days after ur order been received. but u can see your order status there.

Oh! i got it....i used the quotation no...nt internet ref no.
yeah...no estimate delivery date yet...
"We have received your order. It may take up to 3 business days for your estimated delivery date to be available. Please check this page again to view your estimated delivery date. "
thanks dude

btw...u r booking i7+435 ? or i5? do u upgrade ur LCD to Full HD?

nop i dint upgrade to full HD, for me is quite useless but different ppl different taste

btw do u knw hari raya haji got holiday? i wondering if the estimated date is 18 nov, it is haji right? will they deliver to me?

Someone should open a thread for XPS 15 owners
I ordered the XPS 15 with i7, nvidia 435m, and 8gb ram configuration on 1st of Nov... Initially the EDD was 24 Nov, after a week i waited, it changed to 15 Nov, and it has been delivered to me on last Saturday, 13 Nov. 13 days including weekend and working days, not bad.

haha.. how is ur new lappie? mind to share abit wif us? =)

whoa...congrats tat was fst dude....
do u order backlit keyboard? cos i wondering is it tat configuration let our XPS delay

@makubexong,
Fast and responsive generally. Startup time slower, due to Dell's numerous softwares. Took 2 DVDs to create the factory restore discs. Temperature acceptable, slightly warm over the touchpad, and left region of the keyboard. Noise is negligible under normal surfing, unless you have started playing games, the fan noise will become quite prominent after it works at full speed. The size of the laptop is generally longer than the average 15.4 inch laptop. Speakers sound quality is good. However the bass is rather "tight", not so natural. Webcam works fine under adequate lightning. Use MiniDisplay port to VGA port adapter, if you like to do presentation using old projector, in my case, I bought the original Apple adapter, RM99 with 1 year warranty, works fine. The harddisk bay is not readily accessible, have to remove the top cover of the laptop (including touchpad) in case you want to upgrade the storage device to SSD.

Added on November 17, 2010, 8:51 pm@Casperwinde, i didn't order backlit keyboard, it might look stylish, but afterall it still consumes more battery (u can adjust the brightness anyway).

Added on November 17, 2010, 9:06 pmPlease note that i didn't order 1080p screen also. Maybe that is the thing that causes delay? For me 768p resolution is fair enough, and comfortable. 1366x768 resolution on 14 inch is simply... too small and not good for my shortsightedness eyes, lol. With RM400, i think we might as well get a better monitor with even higher resolution and screen size
