Let this be a lesson to all of you. Dell struggles when it comes to shipping things in a timely manner and who really wants a bloated 7-pound laptop? This time around it’s the XPS M1330 and Inspiron laptops. Over at Notebook Review, an XPS delay dedicated thread already has 9,000 comments. The Inspirons aren’t experiencing the massive delays, but it all depends on what color you want.

* Black, white = no delays
* Brown lid = 5 days extra
* Yellow lid = 6 days extra
* Blue lid = 8 days extra
* Red, green, pink lid = 11 days extra

You’re totally not getting a Dell, on time.
