    Normally I wouldn't post, as now it'd be rubbing it in. But since I'm the OP, and all of you threadjacked this... (kidding)...I'll post.

    I picked mine up today...drove through the rain half an hour after work to the facility to get it. Got there, and the guy told me it was still out on the road (after FedEx told me they'd be back around 3pm, and I got there at 4.). Needless to say, I felt, well...it was hilarious.

    Anyway, I have it. Nice machine.

    Then it takes 2 days to get from TN to wherever you live. I guess going all the way to Cali in 2 days isn't too bad, but if you LIVE in TN or somewhere on the East Coast the wait must really, really, suck.

    That's my order. ;)
    I didn't pay for 2nd day delivery with that order. I took the free shipping.

    I have no idea why it went so quick.
    Hopefully my new order shows up that quick.

    That will teach you. :) j/k

    I think you could contact Fedex and arrange to pick it up from their local office, i.e., unless you really are sick :D J/K :D

    He is "sick" remember. Imagine if he went to pick it up and his boss or whoever saw him. He would really be sick then I imagine.

    Maybe you can get it picked up saying you don't want to waste a day and need ur laptop to work from home.
