I ordered a new laptop from Toshiba a few weeks ago. My old Toshiba is about on it's last key and
before the old girl dies, I wanted a new one.
(I work from home two days a week.)
So I got on the website (after shopping all around and not
finding exactly what I wanted) and ordered a new Satellite with Windows 7! YES, Windows 7 - you can still get it
kids. Anyway, the original arrival date
was yesterday (2/23) but yesterday came and when I checked the tracking they
had changed the date to Unknown... that's scary. I know it was coming from China (a slow boat
from China apparently) and that the LA port has been striking but the strike is
over - has been for at least a week maybe longer and still no word.
I'm hoping that the ship didn't go down. If I get an email from a shark I'll know it
did!
I just got an email from Toshiba that my laptop is not in fact lost at sea but still in China!! Apparently the Chinese take 3 weeks off for Chinese New Year - or at least that is the impression I get - it was delayed because of the new year. They will be contacting FedEx directely on my behalf to get my machine on the next flight out - or so they say.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping it gets here before Christmas.
