I think that it is just because of the customization of the system.

All of my orders with apple arrived a few days before the estimate. Apple seems to ship things out rather quickly and Fedex is one of the faster delvery services. On all my orders the estimate given by Apple for delivery was a day or two later than Fedex showed on the tracking system, and Fedex is almost dead on with their estimates.

unless there's a miracle and fedex decides to drive/fly faster you're going to get it on the 19th. BTW if you aren't home and they show up to your house they will make you A) Pick it up, or B) Come back the next day, etc. for 3 days then you will have to pick it up from them. You can pre-sign for it and have them leave it on your doorstep or leave directions for them ie. bring to next door neighbor (and their address). I pre signed for mine and had them leave my iMac on my doorstep, however I live in a pretty safe neighborhood where I really don't have to worry about it getting stolen off my doorstep.

You are very lucky. A 320 GB HD is quite amazing. Mine only has 120, and now I only have 58 GB left.

Hi guys and gals,

I just got my aluminium macbook. I have not open it because I am thinking of buying the screen protector and keyboard protector. In Singapore it cost about $59 for the screen protector and $17 for the keyboard protector. I always travel in and out of Malaysia hence I am wondering if it is cheaper there in Malaysia. Anyone can advice?

Thanks in advance.
