I bought my first ever mac... as a referb. It was a 17 inc powerbook.
It was a great computer. I recently bought new referb, 15" Macbook Pro. I gave my old one to my dad and he is still using it strong.
I havnt had any problems. I knew one guy that had a problem, but he got the problem fixed right away. Apple care is awesome.
the other great thing about referbs is you can still buy the extended warrenty which I recommend.

PS. Remember that even though some referbs are because of hardware failure.. a big number of them are simply returns to the store.
Lots of people return laptops because they changed their mind... etc. And since it is a return, by law, you are required to mark it refreb.

Just an update... everything got here today and the refurb is perfect. No dead pixels and the case doesn't have any marks to speak of.

My best advice would be to save your cash until you go to korea,
I've lived there for 4 years and could only dream going back to get those high end low productions serie laptop/desktop i've seen there,
they are like a million years in future compared to what i've seen around the world (except japan)
just wait boy, if you don't find one that suits your tastes there, just get the refurb then.
