I've recently decided to try and find a decent laptop that can run a few newer games (CoD4, GTA4, maybe Crysis on very low settings?). I finally stumbled upon this one, that I quite like. I've read on various websites that buying refurbished laptops is generally an OK idea, and most of the time people have no trouble with the refurb machines. However, I've seen a few posts around here that seem to indicate some bad experiences with TigerDirect refurbs, and I was just wondering if anyone had any comments on the laptop or the price/TigerDirect aspect.
