I've got a Refurbished Compaq laptop I bought about 2 year ago. It's never had a single problem, and except for installing more memory, I have done nothing to it. I was running Ubuntu Linux on it for a while, but I had too many apps that needed Windows, and I needed the space the dual boot was taking. The weak points are video processing speed and display resolution, and the speakers. Vista has been OK, no real complaints, but nothing special. I should do a backup and full reformat/reinstall of Windows, just to clean it up a bit.
This is mostly from
