I've purchased various refurbished equipment from HP -- though not specifically notebooks -- and have never had a problem. HP has a standard 90-day warranty on refurbished equipment versus 1 year warranty on new equipment, but extended warrantees can be purchased.
Sorry, I know nothing about the other brands listed.
which one is better choice .and what kind of warranty / support i expect from Direct manufacturer ?
