i got in ~ 2 weeks, lost it , just ordered another one
after clean install VERY useful instead of win update site...
or you can slipstream, never tried my self though -
why bother?
It's out dated before you even order it
Best just to download all the fixes and burn them to a CD-RW and just add the new fixes as they come out...
if you don't know how to down the files, search the forums and you'll see the many link that were posted for this very same discussion when the CD first came out -
The time frame from order to delivery is short now. I ordered mine when MS first announced it and it took about 5-6 weeks. A friend ordered one recently and it took less than 2 weeks. I wanted one on hand just in case the OS needed a reinstall.

Mine was in my mailbox 7 days after I ordered it. Sure does making a clean install not so much a pain when you have a dial up modem.
