7 Reasons to Buy Off-Lease Computers and Laptops


Thinking of buying a computer?  Here's seven reasons why you should consider an off-lease computer.

  1. If you just want a computer to send emails, check out your grandkids on Facebook, pay some bills, or watch funny cat videos then you get by with a much, cheaper computer.
  2. Off-lease computers are cheaper than buying a brand new computer.
  3. Why should you pay for the high depreciation that happens with high tech items?  Let some big company, school board, or a government agency pay for the cost of that depreciation.
  4. A lot of lemons in modern electronics are discovered in the first few weeks of operation.  Buying something that has working experience means that it's likely a proven as a solid machine.  If part of it was defective it likely would have been found out before the end the lease. 
  5. If you are not a fan of Windows 8 or Windows 10 then you will be happy to know that off-lease computers allow you the option to get a computer that has Windows 7 or Linux operating systems.  Most new computers don’t give you that option.
  6. Worried about having the kids on your computer?  Off-lease computers are an affordable option that lets the kids surf the internet or do homework without risking damage to your more expensive computer.
  7. If you’re a parent do you want your kids doing homework or wasting their lives on a fancy new expensive computer playing the latest video game?  Trust us, your child doesn’t need an octa-core CPU computer with sixteen-gigabytes of RAM to visit Wikipedia or use MS Word. These computers are made for doing research, writing essays, and emailing teachers.
