[QUOTE="MacHeadCase, post: 356183"] Ok let me get this right... You bought the Mac refurbished? How come you didn't get the install disks? So this wasn't from Apple obviously... Quite a surprise since, when the word [I]refurbished[/I] is used, it means Apple sold it. Get the install disks from the guy: it's a very bad idea to buy a Mac without it's install disks. They contain vital troubleshooting software on them. If ever something goes wrong, you'll have to buy a full version of Mac OS X. And even then you won't have the re-install for the iLife suite and all the rest that comes with a Mac. [/QUOTE]
