    So, I am thinking of giving my little bro my R1 for WoW since I am going off to college and he has an 17inch 3 year old inspiron. I was wondering if 789 is worth it for a refurb i5, 4gb RAM R2 with 250GB? Any thoughts?

    And are the batteries new? or will it come with previous owner's wear?

    They come with a full warranty as if new so you could always get it replaced if it showed too much wear.

    It's a refurb unit @ dell outlet. The price could go even lower if there were any active outlet coupons.

    lol I think i just bought your computer. Since my r3 order got screwed, I got 20% off on it. Total came to $636 + tax.
