Dell has emailed Employee Purchase Plan participants news on a Black Friday preview sale. The DealZ are pretty good, and as we said last time we spoke of Dell's EPP program, anyone can participate, as they don't police it (more on that later).
The Dell Black Friday Preview DealZ are Z-centric, which is why they are DealZ. Today's deals center around Dell's Z-series of notebooks.
The Dell Black Friday DealZ start with the Inspiron 11z, which has an 11.6" screen.

The seeming loophole that many have used for years for EPP purchases is the following: if you go to the Dell EPP site, you will be asked to enter your EPP member ID. However, there is a link on the page that allows you to enter without a valid ID.
Kosher? It's probably not. Does it work? It definitely does, at least until now. I know a number of people who have leveraged the Dell EPP program, Black Friday or not, this way. Should you do it? It's up to you.
