insurance on refurb laptops?

Options
Is it possible to get some insurance for a refurb laptop? I cannot afford a new laptop and wondered if I bought an ex business machine (IBM ThinkPad) would I be able to insure it with a 3rd party (not household insurance)

    For the cost of the policy excess you could buy another laptop.

    You'd probably be better off sticking any possible insurance premium in to a savings account so that you have enough to replace the laptop in future.
