Agree--seems like just the SSD and memory are worth the price...

Does anyone know if this will run Linux without hiccups? Anyone own one who could comment?

I got a couple of refurbs directly from Acer in the past and they have been good. This is a decent laptop for $200.

Ryzen 5 7520 4c/8t with integrated R610M graphics. Not a gaming powerhouse by any means, but should be able to older stuff or kids games on lower settings. 16gb ram and a 1tb SSD is good. I don't love it has a barrel plug power brick, I'm a HUGE fan of USB-C. And no touchscreen. 4lbs + brick.

But these are nitpicks for $200, I don't think it's going to get better than this anywhere near this price. And even free shipping.

edit - my bad, it does say touchscreen in the fine print

For the price, given current market issues, it's not bad for a general purpose, light gaming (nonAAA titles).

Zen2 architecture from Sept 2022, with Radeon 610M severely limiting graphics power.

I ended up buying it. Although it uses a barrel charger, you can charge it via USBC. At least that's what I saw in the review

It states that it has charging over USB-C. And DisplayPort as well.
