X2xx/X30x Shipping thread

[hyde]

I just ordered one last night. During check-out it gave me Estimated Ship Date of 8/11/2011
I received my order confirmation e-mail, it is now showing Estimated Ship Date of 8/18/2011.

Here is my order & specs, and pricing:


I also included a rep ID during my order, some random rep who answered 1-2 questions when I chatted with him a few days ago. I figure, why not.. so i put a rep id.
Yesterday I e-mailed them about the delay, no reply so far.

I just ordered mine last Friday (September 16), and I already have it in my hands today! Unexpectedly fast.

So far I like it - I upgraded from an x61 tablet - except I have to say that the low resolution and the widescreen are bothering me. But I guess I'll have to get adjusted to that. A few more vertical pixels would have been nice though.

In the door $906.07

The single thing I missed was getting the Realtek rather than the Intel wifi -- definitely worth the extra 20 bucks for the Intel since I run linux and the drivers for the Realtek are a bit iffy yet.

So much fun having Backtrack on this on a partition, and being able to run that instance from inside vmware when I have Windows booted.

Overall, I'm delighted so far. I'm probably going to add onsite and computrace. And I'm drooling over the OCZ SSDs just announced - in a 7mm housing, so they'll fit, as far as I can tell.

$837.01 + tax

I ordered an X220 from the outlet on 3/12/2012, and the estimated ship date is 3/16/2012.

I was hoping to get it sooner than if I'd purchased it new (it was considerably cheaper regardless), but what can ya do.

It's got the following specs:

Core i7
8GB RAM
160GB Intel SSD (I was going to just get a regular HDD and put an mSATA SSD in there as well but I can hold off since the unit was so cheap )
IPS display

No Bluetooth and I think it has the base WiFi, and it has the 6-cell battery but from what I hear it should be quite adequate. If not I can always buy another. Or the slice battery...

Can't wait to get it! I was disappointed in the slow ship date since the laptop should just be waiting in a warehouse for shipment, but what can ya do. I heard some horror stories about the Outlet, so I hope I don't end up like one of them, lol.

[bgalakazam]

Got the 15% discount deal. Too bad CA tax killed it $859.86, after tax $941.10

Regardless I chose it over an 8GB refurb from feebay for $860. Here it goes:

I have a Lenovo T61 right now. It's awesome, I bought it on Ebay for 350 bucks and I have an Intel 320 SSD in it. Faster than any other laptop I know. However, I am upgrading for college! My Dad (very generously) bought me a Lenovo X220t for my high school graduation. I'm so excited to try out this computer for note taking! I am planning on majoring in computer engineering at the moment, attending U of Wisconsin-Madison.

Thinkpads rock! I cannot understand why people say they're ugly. I really think they're quite sexy, utilitarian and wonderful because they never go out of style.

[deuce868]

Woot! just got my shipment notification for my x230. Looking forward to the upgrade from the current x201.

Ordered 5th, shipped the 7th, eta the 13th. Works for me.

[gmark]

I ordered my x230 on 07/29, shipped 08/03, eta 08/09 in France.

[swathe]

Ordered an x201 on ebay today should be here by the 11th of APril. Previously owned a X220 but the taller screen, condition and an i7 meant I had to grab it
