I tried to search this sucker but I couldn't find any threads on Refurbished Macs. Anyone have any opinions or suggestions? Anyone had any problems with a Refurbished Mac?

I picked up a black macbook earlier this year - not let me down yet!
...recommendation came from a friend of mine that used to work for apple - writing the os software for them - he gets all his bits n' bobs from the refurb store - exactly the same gear just costs less!
do it!

you dont need to work at apple to know that refurbish doesn't necesarly means used. It could also mean, display box, open box, change / return, etc
apple fixes mistakes (if any) from a new computer (wich may have factory defects) fixes it and gets it back up to the same standards as a new unit. So that means they are elegible for apple care, like the new ones.
I own 2 powerbooks refurbished, an slr camera, a projector and I almost got a pair of yamaha monitors but they only had one, so I had to buy a new pair.
never a problem.

Anyone know when Apple update their refurbished stock on the website? Is it random or is there a time you should try and get on every day?

Apple's refurbished are some of the best.

buying a used computer is gross. you know that someone jerked off on it.

lots of equipment is getting a completely new exterior, especially ones with serial numbers engraved on them (ipods). Also, qc is better than factory new - I doubt my macbook would have this bad pixel had I bought it refurb.

massage the pixel out
