What are the different stages for a laptop?
I ordered a laptop on the 31st, I called today and got the current status was that it was in the "kitting stage". What are the steps that it has to go through, and how long is each stage usually?

Re: What are the different stages for a laptop?
Well mine was in the build stage yesterday when I called. So I assume the next stage would be boxing and then shipped? I ordered an Inspiron 6400 not a newer model so I'm not sure if it would be delayed..

Re: What are the different stages for a laptop?
i thought it was pre-production, building, delaying, still building, still delaying, delaying more, testing, boxing, shipping...but the last one is questionable. i'm not sure if that's part of dell's process.

Re: What are the different stages for a laptop?
Im fairly sure it would go, Pre-production, building, delaying (orders get delayed during build stage), testing, boxing, shippied. Once you make it into boxing, your home free as your system is completed.
