There is nothing wrong with "refurb" computer equipment as long as you have a reasonable warranty. In my experience, most computer equipment that is returned, is returned because of a deficient operator mechanism, the return in and of itself solves this by exchanging the deficient component. Even those that have other problems are ok if the problems are fixed. I buy refurb stuff all the time, it saves 20% or so, and the problem rate is typically LOWER than for unopened boxes. The only thing I have a problem with is paying for unopened boxes and getting refurb equipment anyway, that's illegal, but it happens.
