View Full Version : Refurbished? GregW 04-24-2013, 11:20 AM I'm in the market for a new laptop for school. I am trying to spend as little as possible , but still need a decent machine that is portable. A lot of the stuff in my price range is refurbished, what is the consensus on refurbished laptops? Saltheart 04-24-2013, 11:28 AM I have gotten all my computers from the Dell Factory outlet for 20 years now and never a problem , both laptops and desk tops iamskippy 04-24-2013, 08:28 PM Dell referb is quality, i would try to avoid the rest. Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device JohnnyD 04-24-2013, 08:46 PM Check out the Lenovo Outlet. I've gotten a couple of great steals off of there. If you're using the computer for just web browsing, Office applications and maybe some flash games, you should be able to easily find a machine in the $500-650 range.

Saltheart 04-26-2013, 11:31 AM They have some good dea;ls for a sale this weekend. I saw a 3rd Gen i5 17inch laptop for $599. They have 15 inch Celeron based bottom of the line laptops for $299. I imagine they have i5 and i7 desktops on sale too but I didn't see any specifically in the ad I saw.

The Coupon was 30% off. I saw that coupon and ended up getting a nice laptop (13" i5, 6GB of ram) for very short money. Unfortunately I didn't realize how awful Windows 8 is, and now I can't even use the thing. Any ideas how to get a cheap copy of Windows 7? vBulletin® v3.8.7, Copyright ©2000-2025, vBulletin Solutions, Inc.
