Refurbished - an overused term that has come to define an item that is used
and tested operational at this time. It used to mean repaired at a factory
or ASP level after the item failed DOA or nearly new. Now the term applies
to anything that is used and happens to be still working and that proper
operation has been assured by the seller. It's all B.S.

Hi...

Darned spin-doctor talk. Hate it!!

Car dealers have "demos". Supposedly good. Really, really means
that it's been driven hard by various and sundry people who have no
vested interest in it at all. Worse than used.

Maybe the survivor folks could create a new reality show. Instead of
outwit, outlast, outplay it would be outlie, outcheat, outuse.

Rant over.
