backordering expired domains?~!

Heya~

Quick question-

There is a domain name I want that is listed as avail on the domain registrar powerpipe.com

When I click to register I get this message "PowerPipe.com relies on information from Network Solutions to determine name availability. In some cases, this information is inaccurate or has not yet updated" and it then states that the domain is not avail- when I did a whois I discovered that the domain has expired as of feb 24, 2004. Then, I went to godaddy and was give the option to backorder.


Can anyone explain what this means? If I choose to backorder will the original owner be given a final chance to re-register, or will it be mine?

Sorry if this is a stupid question, it is the first time I have encountered this situation

Thanks;)~
