The only thing that turns me of is that there is a possiblity that it does not come with the accessories as this is refurbed.... I hope newegg is good on this though.
Also according to asus website this laptop asus s5ne should have 2 year limited global warranty.

However I could not find a vendor selling the high capacity 9 cell battery.
This is what scares me.
