[Bradford] Refurbished Laptops

[David Bolton]

There was some chat last Monday about purchasing second-hand laptops.

I just thought I'd mention this place:

Heard about it early this year, as the FSFE (Free Software Foundation 
Europe) were funding the purchase of a bunch of Lenovo laptops from them 
for use by the Manchester branch.  The company handles the 
disposal/refurbishment/sale of ex-corporate laptops, and seems to be a 
subdivision of one of the big hardware leasing firms.

About 9 months ago I bought myself a HP/Compaq 6910p from there - put 
Linux Mint on it (64bit v14.1 Nadia, with Mate desktop) - and it's been 
running wonderfully ever since.

Certainly worth a look, if you are in the market for a replacement machine.
