The best way to check to make sure a computer is legit working 100%?!?!

Hey guys, I need some help with this one...

I'm buying a semi-new MacBook Pro from a friend of a friend with 2.2 GHz processing speed and 4GB of RAM, one of the newer models before the new ones came out this month, purchased around June..

It is for a SUPER super low price, but I played with it all day to make sure everything is working properly (why else would he sell it so low?), and I couldn't find a damn thing wrong. Not even cosmetically lol...

So what are some good ways to figure out if something is really wrong with it that isn't too obvious? Besides like keys/ports not functioning...

*I'm gonna wipe it clean and install Leopard on it cause it's currently running 10.4.1*

Thanks guys!

I'd just use it for an hour or so, test out the keys, bluetooth, wifi, wire connections on all the points etc etc. I can't really think of anything wrong that could be "hidden." If you try everything and everything is functioning correctly I'd say it works fine

Hey thanks for the reply cash. I finally paid the guy and got it, seems like everything is up and running 100%! And to get a 2.2GHz MBP with 4GB RAM for 600 bucks, I'd say I did a pretty good job
