When buying is not the only option
Buying a new computer is not only a big investment – it’s a strategic decision. They have become more than an interface for word documents and files. Computers, along with our mobile phones, tablets and iPads, connect us with the world. They help us facilitate and create. Whether you’re a ‘creative’ using adobe suites or an accountant relying on an excel spread sheet, choosing the right computer is an important decision.
At a time when technology is constantly changing and upgrading, it is also a difficult one. Who would have thought, back in 1975 when the first ‘portable’ computer (the 55 pound IMB 5100) came onto the market, that in 2011 people could carry their laptops around in their handbags and briefcases?
The initial inklings of this exciting new technology are far from the sleek streamline systems available to us today.
One way to beat the ever-evolving technology is to rent. The benefits are multiple:
• Short notice: You can have the most up to date technology without having to save enough money to purchase a computer outright.
• Convenient: If you are a business or traveller finding yourself in need of extra computers for a project, they are only a call away.
• Hassle free: You will save your time trawling the shops trying to find the perfect deal.
• Freedom and flexibility: You are not tied down to one machine. When technology advances you won’t be left to call an e-waste service with yet another devalued piece of electronic equipment.
• Smart business: Rental payments can be up to 100% tax deductible for those running their own businesses.
• Support: When something goes wrong, renters are there to provide a substitute computer so you can carry on working/playing.
With all this in mind, it seems buying is certainly not the only option. Computer rental is something anyone thinking about advancing technologies or the commitment of upfront purchases should consider.
With rental finance now easier to approve than ever, the things you need to operate in this advancing society – like computers – are now more readily available than ever.
