About 3 or 4 years ago, I bought a refurbished Dell.  The
keys seemed to stick a little bit at first, but it got
better over time.  Before the service contract was up,
it failed - wouldn't even boot into BIOS.  Sent it back
and the service department claimed I had spilled something
on it, when I clearly didn't.  It must not have been
refurbished completely.  Anyways, no matter how hard I
complained, I couldn't get them to fix it and had to
pay $800 to replace the motherboard.

I think their service has gotten better, but I still
have a sour taste left in my mouth.
