I've bought two refurbs. One Gateway mini-tower from Tiger Direct and my Dell 8200 laptop.

The Gateway ended up being totally dismantled and the parts ported to an Antec case. I built the computer I wanted at a price cheaper then buying the parts seperately.

My Dell laptop is working like a champ.

The term refurb can cover a lot. Everything from a product return to the factory with some missing manuals to a machine that was totally rebuilt. It can be a crapshoot so check the warrenty terms before buying.
