Reliable Source for Refurbished Laptops ?

Archived from groups: comp.sys.laptops (More info?)

I need to buy about four mid-performance laptops for my business and would
like some advice about some reliable vendors. I looked at IBM's site and,
for instance, I can get refurbed T22's for about $700. These are P3-900 mhz
with 256meg memory and 20 gig HDD's, and come with W2k and a 3-month
warranty. This fits my needs well, performance-wise. I'm a big fan of IBM
laptops, BTW.

Reliability is a bigger issue to me than saving a few bucks, so is there a
reason to go somewhere besides IBM? Do any other vendors offer good quality
at significantly reduced prices? Thanks in advance for any help.

Have you looked at Acer laptops ?

I know someone who asked several support groups inside
companies and the answer was that Acer laptops were almost
never returned for repairs nor for problems.
