Here's a contemporaneous review [windowscentral.com].

Note that I've tried to purchase computers twice from Dell Refurb (one laptop, one desktop). Both times I got PCs that needed to be returned due to defects. I know that's only a sample size of two, but their QA department does seem to be lacking, based on past responses from other SD'ers. Luckily returns are relatively easy and no cost (other than your time to pack it up and bring it back to Fedex; no UPS), but be prepared to fully check out your computer right away if you're going to buy one of these.
didn't see any specs listed, but to hopefully save others some time:
cheapest config (the ~$200 after coupon):
CPU
1x Intel Core i7-9850H (6-Core, 2.60 GHz)
Memory
16 GB (1x 16GB)
HDD

GPU
Nvidia Quadro P620 (4 GB)

I only know Apple and I'm not a gamer - would this be good enough to play Roblox without lagging? I want my kids off my MacBook!

4GB of VRAM if my research is accurate, and less than half the performance of a Geforce 1650. Its probably better than most integrated video, but keep your expectations realistic if you want to use this as budget gaming PC. Still a great price and I think it has Thunderbolt 3. https://technical.city/en/video/Quadro-P620

"The Quadro P620 and GTX1650 are both graphics processing units (GPUs), but they are designed for different use cases.

The Quadro P620 is a professional-grade GPU targeted towards workstation and rendering applications. It features 512 CUDA cores, 4GB of GDDR5 memory, and a maximum power consumption of 45W. The Quadro P620 is optimized for tasks such as 3D modeling, CAD, video editing, and rendering, where stability, precision, and reliability are critical. The main advantages of the Quadro P620 are its better performance in professional software, more accurate color representation, and support for features like ECC memory and NVIDIA Mosaic multi-display technology.

In contrast, the GTX1650 is a consumer-grade GPU designed for gaming and general-purpose computing. It has 896 CUDA cores, 4GB of GDDR5 memory, and a maximum power consumption of 75W. The GTX1650 is better suited for gaming, light content creation, and everyday computing tasks. The main advantages of the GTX1650 are its lower price point and better performance-per-watt ratio compared to the Quadro P620.

For rendering work, the Quadro P620 would generally be the better choice. The Quadro series is optimized for professional applications and can provide more reliable and consistent performance, as well as support for features like GPU-accelerated rendering in software like Blender, Maya, and 3ds Max. The Quadro P620 also has better precision and stability, which can be important for high-quality rendering tasks.

However, the GTX1650 may be a more cost-effective option for hobbyists or individuals who do not require the full feature set of the Quadro P620. It can still perform reasonably well in rendering tasks, but may not offer the same level of performance, stability, and software optimization as the Quadro P620."

This would be overkill for it. I recommend it. (It's kida heavy tho if that matters & might get a bit hot for a lap). These used to be considered powerful.

Quadro P620 benchmark score is 3400
Not bad. Kinda in the range of a ryzen 5 8000 series iGPU like the Radeon 740m.
But this laptop is also 200$ and a laptop with the 740m is closer to 1000$

Nice little system for the money. The biggest caveat is probably the fact that these dell precisions tend to run hot due to subpar cooling. If you need something for work or school that can do light gaming/emulation of older consoles, this is not a bad deal. You get much better build quality than a new 200 dollar system and a much better screen. I have bought a few Latitudes from Dell Refurbished and have zero issues to report myself.

Does anyone do any CAD/CAM work? Specifically Mastercam or Fusion.

Would this be more than enough for that?

You might not see a cad person here, probably better to go ask in a cad forum if this is good.
