Rentacomputer Rental Rates


Photo: Computer Rental Shop

“What does it cost to rent a computer?” is a common question asked everyday.

The answer is based on several thousand factors which all comes down to basic supply and demand at the installation location.

Factors include things such as:

1. desktop, laptop or tablet and operating system
2. ram, hard drive and display size specification
3. brand
4. location and quantity needed
5. current availability at target date
6. amount of lead time


Image: Just as Stock Prices Drop when Demand is Low, Rental Rates also Drop when Demand is Low, Tech Travel Agents save you money during low demand periods. By booking early, a Tech Travel Agent can lock in lower prices BEFORE demand increases.

Rental rates of technology vary daily, just like the stock market. As demand for temporary technology increases, the price also increases. On the opposite side, as supply increases, prices go down. Sometimes as much as 50% less expensive.

“If the product is sitting on the shelf, it’s not making anyone any money. So we get the vendor to cut rates when they have a lot of product on their shelves. We get those lower rates for our customers.” Darcy Mann, Rentacomputer.com.

Lead time is also a factor. If there is time to prepare and test equipment before delivery, costs are lower than emergency situations.

Tech Travel Agents from Rentacomputer.com work with hundreds of computer rental companies worldwide to configure, image, deliver, setup, provide service including networking and connection to the internet during project period and pickup all equipment. By working with multiple vendors, only a Tech Travel Agent from Rentacomputer.com can command low rental rates and the best service from our vendor companies.

To answer the question in genera, a ‘modern’ laptop computer rents for about $99 per week. Projectors also rent for about $99 per week if we ship them to you. Shipping is additional. And subject to availability.

Publishing a fixed price is not a good idea since at different times, prices could be lower or higher.

Rentacomputer.com rents all kinds of technology from hundreds of companies worldwide. This saves you time and money. You only have to deal with one vendor for multiple locations and product needs.

Other rental products include copiers, plasma flat screens, lcd projectors, dlp projectors, iPads, servers, networks, printers, kiosks, video walls, and more.

Laptop Rentals for Traveling

Laptop Rentals for Business TravelWhen traveling on business or pleasure, its important to keep in mind that traveling with your own laptop might not be the best idea. Renting a laptop can be a better solution for several reasons.

Theft or Damage – With all the airport security, there is no telling who has potential access to your laptop or who may be tampering with it. You also have so many people handling your luggage that the possibility of the laptop being damaged is fairly high.

Data Security – If you have sensitive business data on your laptop, then you place it at risk by taking it to an airport.

The Solution – By renting a laptop from Rentacomputer you not only get the equipment you need, ready for use at your destination, but you also get the peace of mind. You know that your own expensive laptop and its data are safe. Additionally, you dont have to carry around the extra luggage or pay the fee to have another bag flown out with you. A laptop rental is convenient, affordable, and you get top to the line models that are practically new. A projector rental is also a smart choice for the same reasons.

4GB Laptop Rental – RAM Options

4GB Laptop RentalsRandom Access Memory (RAM) provides space for your computer to read and write data to be accessed by the CPU. The more RAM you have in your computer or laptop, the less your CPU must read data from your hard disk. This usually allows your computer or laptop to work considerably faster, as accessing data on RAM is many times faster than accessing it on a hard disk. RAM is volatile memory, so data stored in RAM stays there only as long as your computer is running. As soon as you turn the computer off, the data stored in RAM disappears.

2GB – 16GB RAM Options

Rentacomputer.com offers laptop rentals with a variety of memory capacities. 4GB Laptop Rentals are fairly common, due to their increase in speed. If you need a lot of processing power and are concerned with the speed that your laptop functions, you may need a laptop with 4GB or more. However, if you only need to perform simple, general tasks like word processing then a 2GB rental should be suitable.

Tablet PC Rentals for Students

iPad 2 rentalsTablet PCs are very cool pieces of technology but a lot of people don’t really need one on a long term basis. Many people get them simply because they are trendy, but these devices do have a lot of productive uses, one of which is for use as the perfect solution for a student during college.

I don’t know about you but the one thing I hate most about going to college is buying books. Spending $600 to $700 per semester on books is outrageous and not something everybody can afford. However, a solution has presented itself in the form of a tablet PC.

One thing that tablet PC’s allow you to do is take them everywhere, including a classroom. Another thing they do is allow you to buy digital copies of books from online retailers and read them directly on your tablet. By using a tablet PC and digitally downloading your books, you can save a ton of money, plus you don’t have to worry about carrying multiple books to every classroom every day.

However, even though this is extremely convenient and cheaper than buying books, tablet PCs are not always cheap. Sometimes instead of spending $700 on books you can spend that much on buying a tablet. That is where Rentacomputer.com comes in with its full line of tablet PC rentals.

Rentacomputer.com allows you to rent a tablet PC for a period of time, like a school semester perhaps, so you can have all the conveniences of a tablet PC without the cost of buying one. In many cases, renting a tablet is far less expensive than buying one, expecially if you are a student where money is always tight.

Rentacomputer.com has many regular tablets in stock, like Apple’s iPad, and even some convertible tablets (devices that convert from a laptop to a tablet) like the Inspiron Duo Convertible Tablet from Dell. No matter what you need, Rentacomputer.com has it.

So the next time you are walking through your campus bookstore, dreading the cost of textbooks, consider renting a tablet PC rental from Rentacomputer.com and downloading your textbooks digitally from the internet. It’s a great way to save money and it doesn’t hurt to walk into class with the latest technology at your fingertips.

A Tech Travel Agent can get a laptop rental to you within 24 business hours in over 1000 cities worldwide. Call 800-736-8772

We have 3987 Installers, Technicians and Engineers stationed in nearly 1000 locations worldwide to serve you.

Aaron’s Accused of Spying on Customers Via Rented PCs

Aaron'sWhat happens when you rent computer equipment from just any ol’ company and not one that has been a trusted computer rental company in the business for over 20 years? You run the risk of getting spied on, that’s what. And that is what happened with a Wyoming couple who claims that they were spied on by Aaron’s, the rent-to-own company out of Atlanta from whom the couple rented their Dell Inspiron laptop.

In a lawsuit filed in Pennsylvania, Crystal and Brian Byrd claim that Aaron’s showed them a picture of Brian Byrd that had been taken using spying software from DesignWire, which is another company that is involved and mentioned in the lawsuit.

Crystal Byrd told the Wyoming Tribune, “After they showed us the picture, I, of course, felt violated. There are many times I sat in front of that computer with barely anything on. So I didn’t know if they had taken lots of pictures of us or what.” Maybe we don’t need all the details.

Despite that, these accusations are very similar to ones made against a high school in Pennsylvania last year by parents of a 15-year-old student. The accusations in that case ranged from violations of the Fourth Amendment to transgressions against the Electronic Communication Privacy Act, the Computer Fraud Abuse Act, the Stored Communications Act, Section 1983 of the Civil Rights Act, the Pennsylvania Wiretapping and Electronic Surveillance Act and the Pennsylvania common law. This case ended with the school paying a $610,000 settlement.

The software in the case with the Byrds is known as PC Rental Agent. The DesignerWare web site claims that the software is the “ultimate solution”. In addition to that, the FAG section of the site has a very straightforward answer to the question “Is it legal?”  The answer is “Yes”.

The crux of the matter, however, may lie with whether or not the Byrds were aware at all that the software was installed. The FAQ on DesignerWare’s web site advises clients on the subject of whether or not to tell renters. Their answer? “That’s up to you; some rent-to-own dealers like to make their customers aware of it thinking this will help defer them from doing acts that would force them to activate the Agent. Others don’t reveal it.”

Brian Byrd is very passionate about the subject. Byrd says, “I never thought in a million years anybody would do something like that. I read the contract, I read every word of it, and it doesn’t say anything in the contract about it either.”

One burning question you might be asking yourself is why anybody from Aaron’s would show the picture to the Byrds? According to the Byrds, a manager from Aaron’s supposedly turned up at the Byrd’s residence with the picture claiming that the Byrds defaulted on their lease which is untrue according to the Byrds. Brian Byrd believes that the manager “was just trying to…get an easy repossession.”

The Byrds are hoping to turn their claim into a class action but details on what will come of this are still unclear. That is why if you are planning on renting a computer or any other piece of technology, you need to go with a company you can trust, a company like Rentacomputer.com. Rentacomputer.com has been in the computer and technology rental business for over 20 years and they don’t use any kind of software to spy on you. Trust me, they don’t care about what you are doing on the other side of your computer screen.
