Well, at least it appears that someone other than the wonderful volunteers at help at laptop dot org realizes I don't have the XOs. Still no reason for the delay, and I wonder what this "with information on when you can expect to receive your laptop" means. If it means "we're gonna tell you on Wednesday that you're not getting your laptops until mid-Feb," well, that would suck, but honestly it's what I've come to expect from OLPC. So I guess if it means "we're sending you a tracking number on Wednesday and it will ship on Wednesday/Thursday" then I'll be pleasantly surprised. Not pleasantly surprised enough to ever give money to OLPC again, but enough to try and contribute some programming skillz. |
