I chose to give this refurbished pc  to try and save a couple hundred bucks. I kept my expectations low based on the price,but I have to say I am very pleased! So far the computer is working great with zero issues. It even comes with a keyboard, mouse, and usb wireless adapter. It is also very quiet! If I had to find a flaw I would say I don't love the keyboard just because of the backspace key is smaller than I'm used to, but I'm sure I can get used to it or just switch back to my old keyboard. This also arrived in  shrink wrap and was well packaged for shipping. This would make a great gift.
