I really like this computer. It's easy to tell it's refurbished, but it gets the job done. I use it as a small work from home laptop and I've actually ran a few games on it as well and it holds up well. Not the best, but if you're on a budget or needing something small, it works perfectly. Mine wasn't dirty when I received it. I'm purchasing a second one as a gift for a friend since it seems reliable at the 3 month mark.
