Should my gf consider this?

So... she was looking for a laptop to buy, since we start our freshman year. A friend of her father had this http://www.cnet.com/products/hp-elitebook-2760p/specs/, which was never used. It was a display piece, so i consider it open box. I don't know the price yet, but i am sceptical... is this any good with a 2nd gen processor? Sure, she won't be gaming (although ill try to get her  ) but i don't think this thing will laste her 4-5years. Opinions?

Thanks a lot LTT Forum  

 

Edit: She just told me it will be around 300-400e and will have an SSD instead of an HDD (unknown model or capacity )

Looks fine. How much. 

 

You can always get a new systems later.

 

Its build like a brick, its gonna last. Its proably worth 150-200
