Has anyone taken delivery of the New Studio XPS 435/8000/9000?

Ehindy,

Congrats on the good news! That is quite a long time to wait. I hope Dell upgraded the shipping as a result of the wait!

i must have a long wait ahead of me

If your order included a Radeon 4850 video card expect further delays.  If you try to place an order for just the video card it says they are temporarily out of stock.  Hopefully, once these come in all of you still waiting will start to see some progress.  I have been a loyal Dell customer for many years.  My last 6 computers were all Dell.  When Dell anounced the new XPS 435T with the i7 processor I pulled the trigger to update my currect Dell 9100 P4.  I have a lot of video tape to transfer to DVD so I was excited about getting one of these to make the process go much quicker.  However, after waiting 6 weeks and still no confirmed ship date I had to cancel and go elsewhere.  The only reason I state this is I want  Dell to realize that they are loosing loyal customers due to their problems.  I know my one order isn't going to affect their bottom line, but if more people start jumping ship it will.  Some people have orders well over 6 weeks old with little communication except for the weekly delay emails.  This is a poor way of treating customers.  Dell WAKE UP!

**** GOOD NEWS 435 MT OWNERS ***** I just received confirmation my 435MT has shipped!!  Ordered on 2/10, it shipped FEDEX overnight today.   I will update you when it's received and put through the vigorous tests I've planned!  MT-less in Michigan (no longer)

It's good to know that you are getting your system Finally!

However, 2 Freeaking months!!!??? I think that is too much. Do you guys realize that in 2 months, with the same amount of money that you initially paid for the original system, you could get a much better configuration today? This is ridiculous!

Another delay, order delivery just changed again from 4/20 to 4/27. This is my 5th delay.   I get the impression Dell wants me to cancel.  Pretty pathetic.

koam, I'm sorry to hear that. 5th delay??? That IS pathetic! When did you order?

That's great news ehindy!!! Glad to hear that one of the early Feb. orders finally got shipped....

I have a sinking suspicion that I'll be getting another delay email tomorrow....

I guess you're closer to the shipping plant.  Where are you located?  I'm in Coachella, CA. 

I am in Phoenix Az .. I chose 2 day delivery option

Hydroxide,

Don't feel bad, the majority of us have been misinformed!

It appears the Dell staff are misinformed also or instructed to tell the customers what they want to hear. :emotion-6:
