Right here with everyone else!!! Can't Wait. Sux I'll be waiting for the A1. Odred from ExcalliberPC. This is before I found this thread and learned of the great customer service from Xotic PC and GenTech.

I did not want to get out of the waiting line and change over.

Sorry guys, You have been great with all of your post. I will definitly be doing business with you in the future!!!

Can't wait to see the benchmarks... But it might make my next week and half longer and longer

Got THE call today from Justin at Xoticpc; wanting to know if I was willing to change from a A1 to an A2 with Blu-ray drive upgrade. Slightly more expensive (labor?) But I said yes. So I should be seeing it SOOOON. Maybe in time for Valentines?!?

Glad I switched to the A2 as well. I don't actually own one single BR disc, so it's not like it really hurts. Once I see that the early adopters have given the BRD and its software a clean bill of health, I'll order it as an upgrade later.

I also paid for the overnight shipping, so it would be amazing to see that thing show up Saturday!

EXcaliberPC NOW shows the G73jh A2 IN STOCK

Might just call 1st thing and see if I can get the Saturday Delivery !!!

Ehy guys wait a minute..if the difference from A1 and A2 is just the blu-ray why A2 is coming before??? I mean, isn't it the same exactly computer(components) except bluray or is there some more?

[TheCheat15]

The first shipment of A1's got held up at customs, or so I hear. That's why the A2's got here first. And yes, identical except for the bluray.

[eXtreme092]

So do you think it's better change the order and go for the A2? Because I don't know if do it or not..how long do you think does it take for A1 to arrive? Thx...

[TheCheat15]

IIRC, A1's should be here by the 17th, possibly earlier. If you change your order to the A2 now, you probably wouldn't get it any earlier. Some of the resellers are calling the earliest orders and asking if they'd like to change over. You can always contact yours and ask them.

Ok I guess I'll wait for it. If you know, how long does it take from when they receive it to arrive at home if you have the standard shipping?

Well, since you ordered yours with the Diamond thermal compound, they'll need to open yours up and apply it. Then think of all the people before you that wanted SSD's, upgraded thermal compound, etc. You'd hope it would just one extra day before it ships. But, who knows.

Other than the extended warranty, I just left it stock. That's the best chance to get yours out the same day it arrives really. Upgrade the thermal compound at home, buy a cheaper SSD online, and get your lappy earlier.
