    I recently took a look at a deal option on the main Dell website. Interestingly a forum member provided a link for another Dell laptop deal that was also very good but different.

    I couldn't find how he got to that link from the Dell site. Anyone know how to get to these "special" links?

    It was probably just a special build ID. Many of these can not be obviously found on their sites.

    How do you find special build ids?

    They're not always readily available to be honest with you. Dell sometimes makes special packages and promotes them through different channels.
