Been a hot minute since I went through the motions of starting up a PC from software scratch. This being a laptop too, going to dig into it and repaste and add drives. Laptop thermals

Yup! Saved about $100 and the zip ties do just fine considering the case is vertical so no worries about the graphics card falling.

What is the communication with them? Any reason for the delay other than chip shortage?

Yea, I couldn't wait that long. Heck, my wife and I were engaged within 3 months of meeting and married in less than 9 months. I'm not a patient person.

We'll see then. I won't let it get to that point as I do somewhat need it for productivity when September starts.

Eh, it’s a business laptop so YMMV. I’m going through my company’s IT department so who knows about the actual status. They take 6-12 weeks even before COVID.

That's gross, but that makes sense. Ordered a screen through work and it took long enough for me to forget about it, no real urgency.

Sounds like an internal IT issue to me. We just placed an order for 150 Dell laptops 4 weeks ago and we already have deployed a third of them.

OK, I take that back. I talked to our supplier today. Current delivery times are 45 to 60 days.

Well because I'm gluten for punishment and I've spent most of the last 40 years in Microsoft Beta Hell, I did this today. Honestly so for no big deal. I did immediately change the Task Bar to left justified rather than centered. So far, that's been the biggest issue...

I am reminded of Firefox updates. They occasionally make changes to the way it looks that do nothing to improve usability, just annoy people who like the aesthetic of the previous version. The nice thing is tweaks to about:config can usually make the appearance the same as before the update.
