[QUOTE="jaster, post: 326153, member: 3143"] RnDave, I know you are happy about getting more ram than advertised, but if your macbook still had the old acct on it, I would be a little worried. Refurbs are supposed to come in "factory" condition. Meaning totally zeroed out hard-drive. I got one and had to go through the entire set-up process. If I were you, I may be a little worried that the macbook wasn't totally gone over by apple techs. they may have missed fixing the reason it was refurbished to begin with along with missing the excess ram and the old user acct. You may have a great totally fixed machine, but then again I would be worried that the techs missed the reason it was a refurb to begin with and I would worry about problems later on. P.S. I actually had my wife mad at me for a day when my macbook arrived. this thing was FLAWLESS and she thought I spent more cash and got a new one. I had to prove to her it was used by showing her the receipt. Apple does an awesome job restoring their refurbs to pristine condition. [/QUOTE]
