    Hi everyone,

    I'm in search for a secondary laptop for the house and I've seen this NV5207u model (price in canadian dollars) :

    http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=5633769&CatId=4936

    Is this a good deal ? I find it odd to see a Windows 7 laptop already on sale in the refurb category. Is there a flaw on this machine or is it just an overstock item ?

    My needs are pretty simple : Office work, web browsing, watching DVDs and some light gaming (Torchlight, Plants vs Zombies and 3 to 5 years old games).

    I know the CPU is a little slow but I'm ready to live with it.

    Thanks in advance !

    I have no problem with NV series so far.. I play high ended games (batman, dead space, crysis) on NV. My NV notebook actually never has BSOD since 09/01/09
