Default Screw Dell

I ordered a 20gb hard drive from dell on the 22nd of November. It said that it would ship in 1-2 weeks. I said sure, I can wait that long. Once I placed my order it says November 9th, not too bad, a little more than 1-2 weeks but thats fine. Ok, today is the 9th, I get an e-mail from dell:

Quote:
Dear Valued Customer,
We have reviewed your order. Although we had anticipated being able to ship your order sooner, we are experiencing an unexpected delay with your order and will not be able to ship this order and any associated orders until on or before 02-28-2006.
WTF... Screw dell.

That is whack. They didn't even give you a reason it's going to be 3 months late!!

Why did you even bother with Dell for an HDD? Even if you own a Dell, HDDs are not proprietary, you can put any brand in there that fits the form-factor.
