    they usually deliver 2-3 days before the estimated date, so just go for the normal shipping option

    Fedex delivered mine and it took 2 weeks to get my laptop from the moment I submitted the order (but this was back in Sept when school was starting and they had coupon codes out so they were very busy with orders). So worst case figure 2 weeks from the moment you hit submit.

    Fedex has always delivered mine. After it ships out it usually takes 2-3 days to receive it, depending on location. Also, they always package the laptop very securely and safely, so don't worry about damage. Usually people receive their laptops right around the expected ship date from HP.

    Fedex for all my 5 HP laptops within the last 2 years. It usually takes 2-3 days assuming no customs delay. They usually come around in the morning but if you have a nice delivery man (like my UPS guy) he might come around in the afternoon again if you weren't there. It's somewhat dependent on the delivery guy's route and your location.

    No, unless you have his number and you know him personally. Otherwise, you might need to call Fedex and ask them where their pickup location is and to hold the package there for you to pick up.
