I spent so much time looking for a good laptop for this price. I run a small home based business and plan on using it for just that. I was a little apprehensive about purchasing a refurbished laptop, but am so glad that I did. Brand new, this laptop is well over $1500.It's quick and runs great. The materials aren't cheaply made. I've purchased laptops that were far more expensive than this one and the keys fell off with minimal use. Not this one!
