Donald, A refurb purchased from a reseller may indeed be factory- refurbished. I also bought a refurb (iMac Summer 2001) from Small Dog. It was advertised as factory-refurb and the shipping box has printed (not rubber-stamped or labeled) on it "Apple Computer, Inc. Reconditioned Product". It was treated as new by Apple for purposes of original warranty, support, and eligibility to purchase AppleCare. Herb -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
