This machine great for everyday computing activity - such as office applications, email, internet, email, etc. It is not, however suitable for resource hungry applications such as high-end gaming.

Our 6100's are genuine grade A machines which have been professionally refurbished and are in excellent condition. Each unit is put through a proper and comprehensive refurbishing process and then re-checked again once process has been completed to ensure consistency and reliability. There may be some light scratches or scuffs, and obviously some light wear on the keyboard - but any defects will have been rectified during the refurbishment process.
The software is loaded on a freshly formatted, data wiped harddrive. We also supply you with a restore disk - which will quickly and easily restore your laptop to it's original software configuarion should you corrupt your software or get a virus.
We will always describe the quality of our machines as accurately as possible, without exaggeration and will never try and pass of goods that do not meet our minimum standards. You can and should expect a well presented machine with no hidden surprises and nothing more than light wear and tear. The battery is not warranted as it is classed as a consumable.
One last consideration, there are many other suppliers that will offer "Grade A" goods, that are really grade B machines, so that they can clear some extra profit, or offer lower prices. As an high volume internet company, we understand that price is key and work to VERY tight margins - with this in mind it is of vital importance that we minimise returns or customer dissatisfaction. By being completely honest and accurate in our description of goods and our terms of trading, PRIOR to the sale, we avoid potential issues or misunderstandings when the goods arrive. In addition, if an issue does occur - you can expect us to deal with and efficiently, without any heel-dragging.
