I finally approved my pc.ocm order artwork today so they're off to print.

Placed order: 01/21/05
Artwork arrpoved: 03/24/05

Now I get to wait 12-15 weeks for the chips to arrive. That's one long wait.

I recommend calling all the time to get your order started. Natalie, my graphic artist, said she's currently working on ~80 other proofs. Also, something I was not aware of, they have a maximum of three mock up proofs so have a clear idea of what you want. Natalie was nice, but because she was so busy, was unable to really draft up what I wanted. Oh well, I'm happy with the proof.

At least my wait won't be as long as my friend you ordered from thechipstore.com. He waited 9 months for a 500 chip order
