Computer Rental


 

 

When traveling, Pack Light and Consider a Computer Rental

Personally, I don't think traveling for business is fun anymore. Maybe I'm getting older but I think it has more to do with the security and other such nonsense. Take for example the whole "take your laptop out of the case" routine. Hello! The machine cost me several thousand dollars and I don't appreciate it being treated like an old pair of sneakers.

My solution however is to simply rent a computer once I reach my destination. I use all the basic software and with web mail, the need to lug my own equipment around becomes less important. Of course, there's the data but again, a flash memory, solid state hard drive with the needed files etc. and I'm ready to go!



Think about it. A computer rental can be had in any major city including Toronto, Vancouver, and Los Angeles. The machines are all basic equipment and can be loaded with all software needed. Besides, if you have any specialized software, simply rent the laptop, load your own software and you're ready to go.

Computer renting has the following benefits:

 

1. You don't need to lug your equipment across the country
2. Your laptop is safe from being lost or stolen
3. It's simply easier NOT to carry your own equipment but do a quick computer rental.
4. Data stays with you so it's safe
5. Renting is tax deductible!

The bottom line is that renting a computer system for a business meeting or a short term need is much easier than carrying your own. It also gives an opportunity for you to try our new equipment that otherwise you would never be able to use in a productive environment.

Renting a computer is not only convenient but also tax deductible. If you're like a lot of us and don't take our personal equipment off on our taxes. With the IRS rules wanting to know how much time is personal vs. business and the bookkeeping involved, for many of us, it's just not worth the hassle. Renting a computer however, especially for a business reason is a clean and simply tax deduction.

If you're working for a large corporation that doesn't provide laptops or portable computers, ask finance if you are able to expense the rental. You may be surprised to find that they welcome this strategy of short term computer renting.



All Kinds of Rental Terms and Definitions:

  • Inventory of fixtures (on arrival and departure) -- This is done in the presence of both the owner (or his representative) and the renter and it is signed by both. Its role is to indicate, beside the addresses of the renter and the owner and all other details of the property, the arrival and departure dates of the renter. Must also be noted, for each room, the general state of important elements (floor, walls, piping, toilet, electrical installation, kitchen equipment, wardrobes, etc.) and their condition: new, good or used; do not forget to read and note the figures on the various meters upon arrival and leaving - water, telephone, electricity and gas - if they are not already included in the rent. Finally, all objects missing from the inventory should be noted upon arrival.

  • Rent -- Rent is freely established by the parties and represents an amount of money paid in exchange for a service : an accommodation is put at the disposal of a renter for temporary use.

  • Furnished accommodations -- An accommodation is considered furnished if there is enough furniture to allow normal living conditions.
