I'm in grad school and my pc died during midterms. This model was the fastest shipping and a decent price. It arrived on time but I have purchased other refurbished computers before and this is the lowest quality I have seen. The pc is noisy, dusty, and scratched. It makes a consistent low clicking noise that makes me feel like this unit will not last very long. If I weren't desperate and already behind, I would return this unit immediately. If you've got time to wait, I would look elsewhere.
