[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1439342, member: 110816"] First of all, a computer (apart from the HDD) doesn't have mechanical wear and tear that would cause a used machine to fail if it previously spent time as a workhorse. There is no truth in that, fairly uneducated, statement. You can run the Apple Hardware Test ([URL="http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11342"]Mountain Lion edition[/URL]) to check on the integrity of the system.. But used machines (unless you buy from the refurb store or if within the 3 year Applecare period) usually have no warranties and are sold as is, so that's a risk you'll have to take.. [/QUOTE]
