    My edd for my M17x R3 is tomorrow 6/04.

    I called dell and a rep told me it will be monday until it comes to me.

    Why would it say the 4th if its going to be here the 6th?

    Do the reps know what they are even talking about?

    Sorry brother but your waiting until Monday. My r3 had NBD shipping and was sent out on a friday and had to wait until Monday. Dell does standard overnight and ground shipping. You will only receive your laptop on a business day. Trust me I tried the same thing getting it sent on a sat. It was a no go. Sorry man.

    I don't know about that, I called FedEx and they said it will be here tomorrow.

    Thanks for the input though!
