Not only it has not been delivered yet, it has not even been dispatched yet. Estimated delivery is 20th of June. To be fair though, I wouldn't have time to test it now anyway. Working around 17-18 hours per day at the moment

I have come up with an ad for PC for you Mac people "Twice as fast for half the price"

So ordered on the 8th and delivery expected on the 20th! For an item that’s supposedly in stock that’s shockingly slow

I know. Very strange

I'm sure it will be worth the wait

Maybe, but we’d have finished our work before yours had booted up, and then you’d still not be able to work as it’s then run an update that would take overnight

Ha! Full of common misconceptions. My desktop PC boots up in seconds and never misses a beat. Updates? I don't think I have ever had an update that would take overnight. With W10 I don't even know when updates run. It does it in the background.

Let's face it, Macs are all about style and looking good while pretending to work, PCs are all about getting stuff done

Anyway, my 5 min break is over. Back to work. On my 16th hour now

Just as I was finishing my work I got an email from Dell (2.30AM) with an invoice. 3 pages of invoice. Buried there is a dispatch date. It seems like it might be around Monday now as it has been dispatched.

I will be also looking for 2 bags for the laptop. I like to look after my gear and even my Wacom tablet has its own bag.

I will need a bag to store the laptop at home, as most times it will be sitting unused (I will still be working mostly on my desktop). Something like a sleeve, but I would like it to be pretty tough and secure, ie hard case or at least hard corners.

Second bag is more tricky. In summer I plan to take my gear with me, so camera   big lenses   the laptop   wacom tablet. I would like to be able to take it all with me to the cabin. I am honestly considering Think Tank Airport International or Airport Security, but the prices are not really user friendly. What are you thoughts about bags like these?

Where is this laptop coming from? South Pole?
