If you two folks can email me (gthome@dss1.austin.ibm.com) and let me know
what phone numbers you called, who you talked to (if you know) and some
other details about your order I'll see what I can do.  I work in the
Austin Lab and have no connections to our retail channels but I sure can
try to find out what's going on.
