    So I ordered my M17x R3 through AAFES got it for a rediculously low price, im talking lower than the base model but with all the bells and whitles, that I wanted at least. But it didnt give me an option for which shipping method I wanted. Just stuck me with 7day shipping, so I called, got this nice Indian guy who was super helpful.

    Within 10mins I had free next day shipping. No hassles!! I was willing to pay too but it was free! I had been worried after hearing that they would force you to cancel your order and reorder, which wouldnt work for me because it would do the same thing over again.

    So lets just say Dell +1 so far.
