I got the shipment notification on my Dell Mini 9 today, and imagine my surprise when the tracking information showed that it shipped Wednesday night (instead of Friday, as the automated order status line had told me) for arrival TOMORROW! Picture me almost falling out of my office chair from sheer glee and you have my reaction.

So it’s Dell Mini Eve and it feels like tomorrow is Christmas Day. Instead of hanging my stocking with care, I pored I over the user forums at My Dell Mini and created a boot disk to install OS X using my WD Passport drive. My new Built NY case is sitting at the office waiting, and hopefully I should receive my Apple decals in the next few days.

I love starting off a weekend with a brand new toy to play with! I am SO freaking excited. I just hope it arrives earlier in the day as opposed to later. Updates and an unboxing to come…
