    Hi i have small questions.

    What is supposed to do "Click here for available options and upgrades" link?

    For example if i select E6410 and i see "Click here for available options and upgrades". There is writen No camera/Web camera with build in microphone.

    But if i select this model, i cant see where i can add camera to that build.

    So my question is how i can get that upgrade?

    Because Click here for available options and upgrades doest corespond to laptop specification if i will put it un card.

    Thank you for explanation.

    You cannot change or add to the hardware of the units on the outlet. What you see is what you get.

    There are options and upgrades--but not to the HW config of the machine itself. They are more like warranty options and stuff like printers.

    Ah, I see! That does seem pretty reasonable... otherwise, the outlet would be almost too good to be true! (especially with deals like today... 20% off)

    Thanks for clearing that up. :)
