I was a little concerned about buying a renewed laptop. I have always bought new computers. But those concerns quickly disappeared after receiving laptop.  This Laptop has worked better right out of the box then any brand new computer that I have purchased. I would definitely buy another laptop from Amazon Renewed. The physical appearance of this computer is brand new. I like that there was not a lot of junk annoying  software that I needed to remove. It came with 16GB of RAM using two of the four banks taken.  Leaving two banks for future growth.
