OMG, it's....

Laptop delivered 12:50, still no explanation from HP as to yesterday's fiasco, or how they have managed to deliver something they swore blind was no longer in production.

eInvoice emailed from yet another account with seemingly no connection to HP.

Have resolutely set it aside until I run the errands that need running.

And the title? I appear to have overlooked one small element of the spec in ordering.

OMG, it's PURPLE!!!!

HP rang...

 ... while I was out. Message left saying "We don't quite know what's happening, can you ring and tell us if we delivered a laptop or not?"

Absolutely bizarre!
