FTFY!

You should have no problem buying a similar or better system brand new for $450. I would not recommend buying that system.

The shop that I purchase my systems for, buy's old systems and sells refurbs, they would sell this system for around 250. No way in hell would I pay 450 for a 3 year old laptop.

(edit) unless it was a damn good system worth the money.

Don't buy a used laptop if you suck at buying anything used.

Personally I would not go with a laptop, but if you have to I would look into a new PC, for $450 that has a better CPU. I do believe you could get yourself into a i5 processor laptop for about that price easy.

Here are a few options:
i5 for $450
i5 for $480

Those 2 are fairly cheap considering and have comparable specifications.
