A: I don't think anyone sells refurbished software legally. eBay might be your best bet on the software.

my current pbook is 4yrs old but i bought it as refurbished. i had no problem with it until i had a hd failure last year.
i am gonna buy a new macbook pro soon. after they do a update on their chip very likely.

OK, so a slight update to what I had said before. I ordered my refurb iMac from the apple website and it arrived in less than 24 hours. It came in a plain brown box (no fancy apple box) and has a couple slight scuffs on the surface below the screen area by the apple. So its not cosmetically perfect but seems to work without setting on fire so far.

Update: the macbook pro arrive today. Unfortunately, it came with a damaged monitor, i.e. some weird scuff marks that seemed to be etched into the LCD. Perhaps these are dead pixels...?
Needless to say, I called Apple immediately and they are sending out a box so I can ship it back to them to be fixed/replaced. Not a big deal, really, although definitely annoying.
