I bought the 15 inch version of this laptop(the M4800) a few months back.  I believe from these same guys.  Just like that laptop, when I took this one out of the box, I was amazed by the condition it was in.  It truly looked like a brand new laptop.  I saw no blemishes, scuffs or anything.  Everything was nice and clean.  I took it out of the box and booted it up.  It immediately went on to kick off the Windows 10 Pro install and I was up and running in minutes.  To my surprise, the boot drive was actually an SSD; there was also a 1TB mechanical secondary drive.  I immediately opened it up and replaced the secondary mechanical with a 2TB SSD(a Samsung 860 QVO); now the entire system is all SSD and nice and snappy.  By the way, upgrading components is quite easy; once the bottom panel is removed, everything is exposed.  My next upgrade is maxing out the RAM(it comes with 16GB, and I'm gonna get it to 32GB).  Down the road, I may upgrade the WiFi card from N to AC. . .maybe.Even though the M6800 came out in Fall 2013, the hardware in this thing has plenty of grunt for everyday use, video and photo editing, coding etc and will be for years to come.  Hardware nowadays is so fast, that you can hang onto the same machine a lot longer.Oh, and this thing is not thin and light.  It's a 17 inch workstation class laptop with a thick, sturdy magnesium alloy body that can handle dual batteries(it comes with one).  This is a step above what you would get from a standard consumer grade laptop; it's built to last.  The keyboard is amazing as well.This is a lot of computer for the price.
