My return still hasn't moved an inch after being accepted?

My federal return was accepted by the IRS on February 17th, yet I still haven't seen any movement. Is anyone else in this same predicament? I spoke with a college who received his tax refund the day they started processing them. He used TurboTax as well. I'm starting to get extremely angry at the lack of transparency.

Once a tax return has been Accepted by the IRS or a State, TurboTax receives no further information concerning the tax return or the status of any tax refund.

 

After the tax return has been Accepted by the IRS (meaning only that they received the return) it will be in the Processing mode until the tax refund has been Approved and then an Issue Date will be available on the IRS website.
