I'm back with a wide big grin on my face!

It's fast, it's quiet, it looks good. And by mistake they gave me a Win7 Professional instead of the ordered Home Premium - but billed me for the latter.
I was lucky that they had ordered new boards with the new non-defective intel chips already a long time ago - else, so I learned today, i would have needed to wait until late April, or even May. That recall must have been a big and very costly mess for Intel.
