**** BOXING, boxing sucks, ****ing boxing, boxing sucks

Woa, You've been waiting only for a day! I'm sure you'll move on to shipping very soon..

Spliner,

I don't know if this would help, but I made a sound recording of what it hears like to be in the boxing stage. Maybe you can add this to your wiki! lol

Testing: This stage is where the system undergoes rigorous testing. This is also the stage all the software are loaded on the system. <Added by monocapt 8/15/07> Assuming everything goes well, testing is reported to take no more than an hour or so before you will progress to the "boxing" stage.

I'm curious to know what kind of "rigorous testing" can be completed in an hour.

Jak2, lol! Btw: Your sound file, or rather your zip file, is corrupt, or at least I cannot open it. But.. what we need is a sound file of what it sounds like when it's shipped! People would rather hear that one over and over lol.

Oh, and I doubt they test anything.. they just dump the software on it with their imaging system, and if it loads and boots it's good enough for them to ship. At least that would be my guess.

Bah! Sorry, I should've tried before I attached it. It seems like the file was messed up when I sent the sound file from my cellphone to my Email. Verizon screws everything up. Ugh! Oh well

The automated number for Dell only works in the US.

That's quite alright, hearing "boxing" again would probably give me an eerie feeling anyway!
