    Anyone know what the big tech launch is on Monday that Frank Azor tweeted about?

    Skylake already here. New nvidia chips already announced (which Dell isn't a part of anyway). I can't think of anything else weren't expecting.

    Probably Skylake. Until now, they couldn't speak about it.And he does mention the AW 13,15 and 17 so it's in line with his previous comments that if you buy them and a new tech comes out they will upgrade for free (speaking of Skylake)

    I think its just going to be Azor showing off his new iPhone 6s Plus :)

    Seriously, it has tobe Silverlake refresh announcement and telling everyone who ordered they are getting them. Making up for last years lame ass late releases.

    And I just realized that the "free upgrade promo" ends on 09.28 as well. So Monday: Skylake it is (with Dell site updated as well)

    Ahh crap! I though skylake was already out of the bag and Monday was going to be something new that we hadn't heard about yet. Oh well.
