What time did your reservation go in?

Well I had to pass on my reservation due to budget concerns, and a low WAF. But....my wife ended on the reservation list as well. She went ahead and pulled the trigger, and I am getting the 990 as an early birthday gift. As we speak, the 990 is due to be here thursday.....

Looks like thursday will be a good day, Start the Day with Star wars Ep. 3, and then get my 990. looking good!!

Props to the wife, (lucky me!!)

Nice.... Pretty cool wife you've got there, Nemos2. Enjoy Episode 3 - I've worked to carve out a little time from work Saturday afternoon (crazy deadlines) to see it with mrs. gonk while the little gonkette stays with grandparents.

Gonk, yes pretty cool indeed. (although she said no more home theater stuff for a while...) But its all cool from here...

As I mentioned when I started this thread, I received my option to buy on May 12th, I did so right away. Today the 990 came in, it is indeed a beast. Unfortunately, the 7100 was shipped from California, so it won't be here for another day or so. I just ordered a bunch of cables as this is my first multi-channel setup. I hope to have something running this weekend.....

bobby c, did you go for ground or overnight on the 990?

I selected Ground. I purchased on May 12th. According to FedEx tracking records, Outlaw sent the info to FedEx on the 12th, FedEx picked it up on the 13th (from Easton, MA)and it was delivered yesterday. Pretty quick turn around (4 days), including a weekend. The 7100, on the otherhand, was picked up by FedEx on the 12th in Pomona, CA. Delivery should be sometime soon, it's on the local truck now. Oh, I live in the Washington, DC area.

Interesting, my 990 came out of Pomona, CA. I wonder if the outlaws split the 990 shipment between east and west coast? My 990 shipped from Pomona on 5/13 and arrive in Washington (state) yesterday. When I purchase my 7100, last month, it also shipped out of Pomona.
