    My 9 cell battery arrived 4 days early (from the date Dell told me) and Fed-Ex is telling my SXPS 13 estimated delivery is tomorrow 7/25/09. Dell is telling me that my SXPS should arrive 8/6/09....lol. Not sure if I got lucky or not but I'll go with it.

    I was planning to make this thread later on but seeing as my laptop might actually arrive tomorrow I was wondering:

    What exactly do I need to do to make sure my laptop receives all it's updates and such? Like I heard updating it to A07 (sp?) makes it run much cooler, etc. What else should I do to the laptop before actually using it? Thanks.
