I was able to install the OS and get this thing up and running in no time. Win10 is activated and my end user being French I was able to install the OS in French. Noise level is noticeable but really really low. A few scratches and the rear of the frame is a bit bent so clearly refurbished but nothing bad cosmetically really obvious. I read some reviews about loose screws and I got one. So open the thing before you power it up to make sure you don't have some in the one you received. Opening the chassis is trivial and doesn't require any tools. Now let see how long this thing lasts...
