That was quick: ordered on Friday, delivered on Sunday.

Definitely a refurbished unit, as there is a long, light scratch on the lid. No worries since Miss Swede will cover it in stickers soon enough. After doing a bunch of Windows and BIOS updates, it seems to be in good shape, and the battery is giving about 7.5 hours unplugged with light usage. It's very well built and light. Miss Swede is happy. I'm going to let her use it for school for the next two weeks to see if any other issues pop up so I can return it if necessary.
