A:Answer Hey MARS,
i bought mine and you're better off just saving a few hundred bucks and buying the newer version when they're on sale.
Visually, they're practically perfect. Mine was in excellent superficial condition. Internally however, it's shot. It would freeze and shut down every time I used it. I'm talking once every 5 minutes. if it did manage to stay on long enough for me to open anything, as soon as I started typing - it would let out this loud obnoxious beeping sound until I force shut it down via the power button.
Bought mine for $700 - the newer model was on sale that week for $850. For $150 extra I really should've went with the newer model. I returned mine the last day of the warranty and opted to get the same model back. I'll update you on how this goes, if it's a lemon again I'm just getting a refund.
