Possibly Dead: Brother Color Laser HL-4040CN $49.99 AR

FYI, Spoke to CSR, these are backordered 2+ weeks, which is outside of rebate period. They are working with Brother to see if the rebate can still be honored. Said they should know something by Friday. I am going to cancel on Friday if not resolved.

Dell is to blame. They shouldn't be selling "drop shipped" products without a system that can manage the inventory. Most companies that do this well have systems that integrate into the supplier's system, AKA supply chain management. Amazon, though not great, would be an example. Taking...

4GB of memory

If you are using a 32 bit OS, you will not be able to use all 4Gb, especially true with the MS implementation of hardware address allocation. edit, without PAE that is. IE, with Windows XP Pro, you will probably see around 3Gb usable RAM when you put 4Gb in. 64 bit, no problem.
