    In general, if the refurb came back to apple with a problem, it was corrected as part of the refurb process. I suspect getting a refurb will steer you clear of a gradient problem later on because it was most likely already dealt with on the first return. And they come with the same warranty as new, so if it goes later on, you can get it corrected.

    You might want to check the refurb store as they have 24" iMacs for $1,499 which is 300 off normal list.
