OT: Refurb PCs from eCost? - 02/07/05 01:28 PM
Sorry about the OT topic, but I trust your opinions!
There has been much discussion about refurbed Denon products from eCost. Anyone ever buy a refurb HP from them?
My in-laws want a new computer and they do nothing but e-mail and web….literally. At this point, even AOL is sluggish and "non upgradeable" on the PC I gave them several years ago. They're in their sixties and the sort of folks that pay cash for things and would almost live the Amish life if given half a chance , so they want something inexpensive and simple. I'm sure if I paid more than $700 they would look at me like I bought them a new Lexus!
I've often wondered about a refurbed PC from eCost. Anyone ever try one or have alternate suggestions? I'm the "computer guy" of the family, so I'll be taking care of the purchase and installation!
