Was a little leery about buying refurbished but it was the capacity I wanted at a price that fit my budget.  Two months in I have no complaints, much faster than my 4 year old Dell and takes up slightly less desk space.  Loaded with USB ports, 6 in front and at least than many in back, nowadays one cannot have too many USB ports. No dents at all in case and you'd have to look very closely under a bright light to find even a few minor scratches.  Of course, it's what's in the box that counts,  so far, so good, hope I can say the same in a few years.
