You're better off asking these questions to the place where you're going to buy
the laptop. Most places that sell refurbished items have them go through a test
but the test they go through is not the same test as if it were to be brand-new
in most instances. If the refurbished item is backed up with a similar warranty
like that of a brand-new laptop, you should have that peace of mind.
